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 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.

The strength and conditioning internship, and my undergraduate course as a whole, was outstanding – both were fundamental to my development.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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