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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

Being on placement gives you an insight of what it is like to be working as a diagnostic radiographer and it helps you decide which speciality you want to focus on.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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.

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 gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

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

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

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