Health & Life Sciences

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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 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.

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

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

I would 100% recommend Teesside University and my course to anyone applying. Chemistry offers so many different career possibilities and the academic staff are there to support you through the entire process.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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