Health & Life Sciences

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.

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.

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

I chose to do my master’s at Teesside University because I was impressed with its links with industry.

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

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

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.

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

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 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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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 allowed me to develop into a school nurse.

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

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

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