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.

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

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.

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 chose to do my master’s at Teesside University because I was impressed with its links with industry.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.
