Health & Life Sciences

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

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.

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

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

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

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

My time at Teesside gave me the confidence and capability to reach my goals. I am forever grateful for my time there and to everyone who supported me.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

The placements give you the best learning experiences as you work hands on with clients and learn from them and the professionals.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.
