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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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 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.

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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 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.

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