Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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

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.

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