Health & Life Sciences

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

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.

Completing it allowed me to progress from a community staff nurse to a district nurse in my workplace.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 practicality of the course was the best thing.

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.

I was provided with so many opportunities and I hope to be able pass this on by mentoring Teesside University students in the future.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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