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

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

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.

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 gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

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

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.

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

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