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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.
