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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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.

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

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