Student views

I really enjoyed the theoretical modules as they were taught by some of the most influential criminologists in the country and their expertise was priceless.

The PGCE course was excellent and the level of teaching was exemplary.

I’m currently working with children and I wanted to expand my knowledge and skills to progress into a higher position.

I love the diverse nature of teaching English and helping learners from all backgrounds gain qualifications to help them progress to the next stage of their life.

I love that I get to do a work-based placement alongside my course, I’m gaining first-hand experience of my chosen career path in primary schools.

I feel like I am constantly learning from my teachers, as well as developing relationships with them, this allows me to ask any questions I have.

I’ve learnt that to make a student’s journey positive you need to use different teaching styles.

The way the course is taught is great. You have plenty of support, not only from the staff but from your classmates as well.

The facilities are a high standard and accommodating

For anyone who is considering doing some distance learning, I would definitely advocate it and I would absolutely champion and recommend Teesside University.

The campus is amazing – everything is in close proximity meaning that you’re never far away from your next lecture or seminar.

I loved every minute, which is why I want to come back.

A law degree is essential for pursuing a legal career – I wouldn’t be able to achieve my dreams without the University.

The facilities are the best I have experienced and the 24 hour library was a great help during my studies.'

I have had so many opportunities through studying at Teesside, as well as meeting incredible people, and I’ve learned so much.

I’ve really enjoyed my Law Clinic module. This has involved gaining hands-on experience in the University’s working law clinic which members of the public can go to for legal advice.

The social activities, careers service and work experience opportunities gives Teesside University that extra edge that other universities don’t offer.

The thing I most like about my course is, it’s really linked to the job I want to do.

I found the course challenging and enjoyable.

I loved my course, especially the forensic classes which were amazing.

I lead the UN’s strategic response to cybercrime, money laundering and terrorist financing by delivering capacity building in over 70 countries.

I came from the US to work in Middlesbrough, and since I had some extra time on my hands I thought it would be nice to learn something new.

My degree has nurtured my skills and helped me develop new ones.

I find forensic psychology interesting because no two cases are the same, this makes the work varied and interesting.

Without my qualification or university experience I would not be where I am today. I have met some wonderful people and gained so much knowledge in different areas.

Laura chose Teesside because she felt it would offer the support she needs to succeed.

I have had such amazing experiences during my time here. The teaching has been outstanding, it’s been incredible.
