Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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.'

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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