Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 learned about the whole human body, from muscle groups to small chemical molecules. From this I found my skill was in microbiology and from there I knew what career I wanted.

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.

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

The classes inspired me to study and helped to boost my confidence.
