Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

I had an amazing few years at Teesside. Everything I did led me to where I am now.

The facilities at Teesside, including the motion capture studio, gave me valuable experience with technology that I would usually only encounter in industry.

There are some fantastic networking opportunities there and it has led me to where I am now.

I’ve developed so many skills that will help me in the future

I work as a social media executive at LADbible group, writing articles and interviewing some of the biggest names in sport.

The thing I loved most about my time on the course was how I was able to really concentrate on developing the skills that I felt would help me progress into a future career.

The course offered value for money – it’s got me where I am today, and without it I would not have been able to benefit from these fantastic opportunities.

I use the skills I learned at university in my everyday work and will continue to use them throughout my career.

I look back on my time with great fondness. Teesside University provided me with the greatest of life experiences.

Since I’ve graduated I’ve worked at Amazon, Duco and Snap Inc – the company that owns Snapchat. I’ve been able to apply what I learned at Teesside University to each job.'

My time at Teesside made me more confident in my work. It got me started with my contact network, which has been invaluable in the process of getting to where I am now.

I’ve made great connections for the future which is important in this industry. It’s helped me by opening my eyes to the opportunities there are.

The careers advice and guidance from my tutors regarding creating my CV and application letters has been significant in gaining interviews.

Middlesbrough is really student-focused, which made settling in so easy. And the gaming facilities are incredible.

I enjoyed the freedom to explore projects that complemented my skills and being able to expand my knowledge at my own pace.

Teesside University is warm, welcoming and full of lots of incredible people, you'll be surprised how comfortable you feel here.

I was a bit nervous about coming as an international student initially, but Teesside has a good mix of cultures which made me more comfortable.

I now work for a well-respected Solicitors as a Human Resources Coordinator and feel that going to University has been the best decision I have ever made.

After visiting the campus and meeting the course tutors it was a no brainer, this was the place for me to study.

Teesside University developed my design thinking and problem-solving skills, encouraging me to find surprising lateral solutions to briefs.

Teesside University helped me get closer to my goals – from aspiring to work in the games industry to securing my first job.

The industry links at Teesside are so valuable in securing your first job out of university – which can be a scary prospect – but if you ask for it the help is there and always willingly given.

My time at University gave me the confidence and skills to achieve the goals I wanted from my choice in career.

One of the best things about the course was having lectures and briefs set by outsourced professionals such as Atomhawk and Ubisoft.

I'd recommend it as a friendly place - both the university and town, with excellent, ambitious lecturers. It gave me a love of literature.

Both the course and the facilities at Teesside University were outstanding.

I would recommend Teesside. The course developed me a lot as a person technically and personally. The lecturers are all friendly and always happy to help out, and of course the area is great for nightlife.
