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

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

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.

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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

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

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

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

The university is very accommodating and supportive of students, especially for those studying a degree alongside a full or part time job.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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