Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

Completing it allowed me to progress from a community staff nurse to a district nurse in my workplace.

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

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

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.
