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

My time at uni was greatly enhanced by the support from wonderful lecturers who advised and prepared me for my career.

Teesside University has been an amazing place to study - the facilities are second to none and the support systems are fabulous.

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

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

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

The services are amazing, especially in career advice, student support and volunteering opportunities.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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 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.

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.
