Health & Life Sciences

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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 further learning at Teesside University provided me with confidence and the ability to articulate gained knowledge.

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

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