Health & Life Sciences

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

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.

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

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

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

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

Being a sport scientist is about so much more than domain subject knowledge.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

I got on really well with my classmates and made a lot of good friends for life.

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

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

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

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

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 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.

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

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

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

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

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.
