Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.
