Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

The facilities available on campus had everything I needed when I needed it.

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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

I heard that Teesside was one of the best places to study visual effects so I visited an open day and that made my mind up.

I loved my course. I loved the fact it was very hands-on especially the News Days module. And I found that the teachers were very helpful throughout my studies.

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

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.

I’ve got a great foundation on which to build on professionally, and it was a truly character-building experience.

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

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.

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.'

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

My time at Teesside University helped me to understand my purpose in life.

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.

Being able to decide on how I wanted to develop my own study was the best thing about the course.

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

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

When I go to new studios I always know people through the connections I made at Animex - it's definitely made me feel at home in the industry.

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.

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.

I now work as a nuclear defence manager for the Ministry of Defence, where I facilitate the production, design and maintenance of the current and future development of nuclear reactors

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.

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

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

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

Without the University’s careers service and constant LinkedIn sessions, I wouldn’t have had a CV that would have impressed industry professionals.

The course offered an optional work placement, where I could gain the exposure to the industry I needed, that would set me up for a role after graduating.

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

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