Health & Life Sciences

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

I gained a strong skillset for a career in health research.

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.

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

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

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

The practicality of the course was the best thing.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

Teesside University has been an amazing place to study - the facilities are second to none and the support systems are fabulous.

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

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

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

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.

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.
