Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

The support from the tutors is excellent. They are professional, knowledgeable and so enthusiastic.

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

My course was varied and covered a wide range of topics. Modules were delivered by knowledgeable lecturers who had a great deal of experience within the forensic science field.

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

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

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

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

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 laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

My time at university played a significant role in preparing me for my career.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
