Health & Life Sciences

I was provided with so many opportunities and I hope to be able pass this on by mentoring Teesside University students in the future.

This course prepared me extremely well for my career, allowing me to explore a range of modules and gain insight into what work may look like in different industries.

My learning experiences and course structure at Teesside excelled my career growth. It was the perfect mixture of principle and practical learning.

I worked at the Royal Victoria Infirmary as a scrub ODP in spines, trauma, orthopaedics and neurospecialties.

My time at uni was greatly enhanced by the support from wonderful lecturers who advised and prepared me for my career.

I had an amazing time, achieved a first-class honours degree and now I’ve got my dream job.

Being on placement gives you an insight of what it is like to be working as a diagnostic radiographer and it helps you decide which speciality you want to focus on.

The placements give you the best learning experiences as you work hands on with clients and learn from them and the professionals.

I gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

I am grateful for the exceptional support I received during my master's.

The services are amazing, especially in career advice, student support and volunteering opportunities.

One of my proudest achievements during my studies was being awarded the Philip Goodeve-Docker award from the Queen’s Nursing Institute.

I think the work placement module was the most important module of my course – it gave me real insight about what I needed to do.

I want to be able to inspire other international students, as well as students from different backgrounds, to dream big and never give up on their goals - education is truly the passport to the future.

I can say with certainty that without the skills I acquired at Teesside, I would not have been able to secure my current job role or move to Canada.

The staff are excellent and pushed me to do my best and they give you their unconditional support.

I chose to do my master’s at Teesside University because I was impressed with its links with industry.

Teesside University has been an amazing place to study - the facilities are second to none and the support systems are fabulous.

I got on really well with my classmates and made a lot of good friends for life.

Gaining my degree and meeting inspirational people was the essential catalyst to my career.

I love meeting new people and I've got an unrelenting need to be helpful, so nursing is the perfect profession for me.

The opportunity to work with industry professionals and gain direct exposure to cutting-edge equipment and techniques through workshops and projects was invaluable. For anyone looking to advance their career in bioprocessing or biotherapeutics, Teesside University is a fantastic choice.

I would highly recommend Teesside for anyone who wants to gain a professional career in healthcare. The facilities are amazing, they have great connections with the NHS around the North East and staff are so supportive.

The strength and conditioning internship, and my undergraduate course as a whole, was outstanding – both were fundamental to my development.

Being a sport scientist is about so much more than domain subject knowledge.

This course provided me with the opportunity to design and conduct field work, giving me real hands-on experience. This was noted during my interview for RPS.

My life has transformed from the life of a shy girl from a working class background who comes from a foreign country and speaks a foreign language, to the life of a person who knows that through my hard work, I can live my dreams.

I would 100% recommend Teesside University and my course to anyone applying. Chemistry offers so many different career possibilities and the academic staff are there to support you through the entire process.

The course is really interesting, and I feel like I will be well prepared for my first job.

My time at Teesside gave me the confidence and capability to reach my goals. I am forever grateful for my time there and to everyone who supported me.
