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

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

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

I had an amazing time and I've continued to keep a close, personal connection with Teesside University. I am very proud of my roots and very excited to see the future talent the university is going to produce.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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.

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 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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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