Health & Life Sciences

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

Teesside allowed me to complete my studies and continue with family life.

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 practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 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.

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'm proud to say I'm already living my ambitions and Teesside played a big part in making that happen.

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

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