Health & Life Sciences

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.

My further learning at Teesside University provided me with confidence and the ability to articulate gained knowledge.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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