Health & Life Sciences

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.

The placements were invaluable and core to achieving and augmenting the theoretical aspects of the course.

The lecturers are amazing – they absolutely make university life what it is.

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

I learned about the whole human body, from muscle groups to small chemical molecules. From this I found my skill was in microbiology and from there I knew what career I wanted.

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

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 recommend Teesside, it’s very supportive and there are so many opportunities available.

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

I have gained great experience and confidence in practical applications, particularly working in lab and medical situations.

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

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.

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.

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.

The placements were the best thing about my course. They provided a glimpse of what it’s like to be a qualified occupational therapist.

I would absolutely recommend Teesside to serving members of the military or those who have left. At the time of enrolling, I didn’t quite appreciate the support that I would be given throughout this course.

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

My time at Teesside allowed me to develop into a school nurse.

I loved how hands on the course was straight away. We were practising on phantom heads within a matter of weeks and learning practical skills.

I would recommend my course and profession all day long. There is nothing better than seeing the impact you’re making...

My further learning at Teesside University provided me with confidence and the ability to articulate gained knowledge.

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

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

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

This course equipped me with many valuable skills which allowed me to secure a job within the NHS and quickly adapt to my new role.

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

The University has such a wide range of extra-curriculum opportunities, which set you apart from other graduates.

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

The classes inspired me to study and helped to boost my confidence.

The practicality of the course was the best thing.
