Health & Life Sciences

The placements were the best thing about my course. They provided a glimpse of what it’s like to be a qualified occupational therapist.

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 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.

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

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 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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

The opportunity to work with industry professionals and gain direct exposure to cutting-edge equipment and techniques through workshops and projects was invaluable. For anyone looking to advance their career in bioprocessing or biotherapeutics, Teesside University is a fantastic choice.

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.

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

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 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.

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

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

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

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