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.

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.

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

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 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.

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

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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