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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

This course equipped me with many valuable skills which allowed me to secure a job within the NHS and quickly adapt to my new role.

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

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.

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

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...

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

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

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

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 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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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