Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

Teesside allowed me to complete my studies and continue with family life.

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

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.

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 university is very accommodating and supportive of students, especially for those studying a degree alongside a full or part time job.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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 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.

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

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

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

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 Teesside allowed me to develop into a school nurse.
