Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.'

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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