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

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

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.

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.

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 gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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