Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

The university is very accommodating and supportive of students, especially for those studying a degree alongside a full or part time 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 had an amazing time, achieved a first-class honours degree and now I’ve got my dream job.

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

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

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

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

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

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 practicality of the course was the best thing.

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.

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

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

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

My time at university played a significant role in preparing me for my career.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.
