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

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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.

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 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.

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 loved how hands on the course was straight away. We were practising on phantom heads within a matter of weeks and learning practical skills.

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

My time at uni was greatly enhanced by the support from wonderful lecturers who advised and prepared me for my career.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.
