Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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 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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

I got on really well with my classmates and made a lot of good friends for life.

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.

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

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 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.
