Health & Life Sciences

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.

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

My time at Teesside gave me the confidence and capability to reach my goals. I am forever grateful for my time there and to everyone who supported me.

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

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

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.

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

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

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