Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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.

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

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 practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

My time at Teesside gave me the confidence and capability to reach my goals. I am forever grateful for my time there and to everyone who supported me.

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.
