Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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.

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.

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 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.

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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.'

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 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

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

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

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