Health & Life Sciences

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.

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

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

I was provided with so many opportunities and I hope to be able pass this on by mentoring Teesside University students in the future.

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.

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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

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 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 recommend Teesside University 100%. For a UK university with top notch teaching and research facilities and yet very affordable think Teesside University.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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