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

The university is very accommodating and supportive of students, especially for those studying a degree alongside a full or part time job.

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

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 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.

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

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

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.

I recommend Teesside University 100%. For a UK university with top notch teaching and research facilities and yet very affordable think Teesside University.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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 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.

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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.

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

In addition to gaining valuable hands-on experience, and great networking opportunities, I studied and worked with like-minded individuals who share the same goals and ambitions as 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.

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