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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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.

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.

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

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 gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

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

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

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

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

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

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