Health & Life Sciences

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 think the work placement module was the most important module of my course – it gave me real insight about what I needed to do.

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.

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.

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

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

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