Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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

The lecturers are amazing – they absolutely make university life what it is.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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.

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.
