Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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 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 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 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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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 practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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