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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

I would absolutely recommend Teesside to serving members of the military or those who have left. At the time of enrolling, I didn’t quite appreciate the support that I would be given throughout this course.

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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.

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