Health & Life Sciences

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

I gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

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

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

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

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 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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

My learning experiences and course structure at Teesside excelled my career growth. It was the perfect mixture of principle and practical learning.

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

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