Health & Life Sciences

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.

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

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

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

I chose to do my master’s at Teesside University because I was impressed with its links with industry.

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

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

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

My learning experiences and course structure at Teesside excelled my career growth. It was the perfect mixture of principle and practical learning.

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

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

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.

The support from the tutors is excellent. They are professional, knowledgeable and so enthusiastic.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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