Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

There are some fantastic networking opportunities there and it has led me to where I am now.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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 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

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

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.

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