Health & Life Sciences

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.

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

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

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

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 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.

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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.

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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