Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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 laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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

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

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.

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

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