Health & Life Sciences

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

Teesside University has been an amazing place to study - the facilities are second to none and the support systems are fabulous.

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 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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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.

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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

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

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 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.

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