Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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.

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

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

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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.

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.

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.

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

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 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.

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

I loved how hands on the course was straight away. We were practising on phantom heads within a matter of weeks and learning practical skills.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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 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.

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.
