Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

My time at Teesside University helped me to understand my purpose in life.

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

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.'

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

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.

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

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.
