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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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.

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 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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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 think the work placement module was the most important module of my course – it gave me real insight about what I needed to do.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.
