Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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 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 developed so many skills that will help me in the future

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.

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

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