Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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.

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.

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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 loved how hands on the course was straight away. We were practising on phantom heads within a matter of weeks and learning practical skills.

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.

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

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