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

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

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.

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

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 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.

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

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

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.

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

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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

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

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

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

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.

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 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.

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 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.
