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

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

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.

Gaining my degree and meeting inspirational people was the essential catalyst to my career.

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 gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

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

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

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

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.

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 am grateful for the exceptional support I received during my master's.

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

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

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

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.

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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

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

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