Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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

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

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.

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 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.

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.

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

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

I had an amazing time and I've continued to keep a close, personal connection with Teesside University. I am very proud of my roots and very excited to see the future talent the university is going to produce.

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 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.

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

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

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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.

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.

It is one of the best universities in the world for creative industries and will continue to be so. Our lecturers were great at helping us succeed and linking us with industry.

Paul studied mechanical engineering and now works as a Lead Mechanical Engineer at Nifco.

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.
