Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.
