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

When I looked at different universities, Teesside stood out for the quality of its animation work and the number of graduates working in well-known studios.

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

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

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

The course expanded my knowledge and helped me grow professionally in areas I never imagined. I did it, so can you.

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.'

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

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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.

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

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

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 would recommend Teesside University and my course. It helped to get me where I am today.

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.

My degree gave me the skills I needed for my career, from problem-solving in Maya to using other software at the university that I later used in my current job.

I had a lot of support from the placement and careers service. They often ran lectures on tips for CVs, interviews and networking sites such as LinkedIn.

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

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

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

The course helped us to prepare for, and be mindful of, going into industry after graduation.

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

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