Putting our students first at Summer Graduation

Thousands of graduates celebrated their academic achievements at Summer Graduation 2022. The ceremonies were extremely successful, thanks to a remarkable team effort that exemplified our Team Teesside ethos.

To recognise this, we have produced a short video montage to celebrate you - the incredibly diverse, talented, and supportive people who always put our students first.

We hope you enjoy watching the video and spotting friends, colleagues and possibly even yourself, and that you feel inspired by what we achieved by working together.

To me, Team Teesside is all about community and respect. It doesn’t matter if you’re homegrown or from somewhere else, everyone feels welcome and part of a family here. It feels like being part of a team and as someone who wasn’t a local, I’m so glad it exists.

Team Teesside for me is all about inclusion and feeling connected to the overall objectives and aspirations of the University. It's about knowing we can all play our part, no matter how small, in making this the best University for students and staff.

There is a sense of belonging as a member of Team Teesside. Together, the team accomplishes its goals, celebrates success, and overcomes challenges.

The brilliance of Team Teesside is how it empowers people to believe they can make a difference. By encouraging self-development and continuous growth, it has enhanced my confidence and helped me translate my social-conscience into actions to the community.
