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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 Teesside allowed me to develop into a school nurse.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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