Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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.

I love meeting new people and I've got an unrelenting need to be helpful, so nursing is the perfect profession for me.

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

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

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.

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

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 equipped me with many valuable skills which allowed me to secure a job within the NHS and quickly adapt to my new role.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.
