Health & Life Sciences

The staff are excellent and pushed me to do my best and they give you their unconditional support.

The lecturers are amazing – they absolutely make university life what it is.

I want to be able to inspire other international students, as well as students from different backgrounds, to dream big and never give up on their goals - education is truly the passport to the future.

I was provided with so many opportunities and I hope to be able pass this on by mentoring Teesside University students in the future.

One of my proudest achievements during my studies was being awarded the Philip Goodeve-Docker award from the Queen’s Nursing Institute.

My time at Teesside allowed me to develop into a school nurse.

My life has transformed from the life of a shy girl from a working class background who comes from a foreign country and speaks a foreign language, to the life of a person who knows that through my hard work, I can live my dreams.

Teesside allowed me to complete my studies and continue with family life.

I got on really well with my classmates and made a lot of good friends for life.

The laboratory equipment and quality of lecturers were exceptional.

I would highly recommend Teesside for anyone who wants to gain a professional career in healthcare. The facilities are amazing, they have great connections with the NHS around the North East and staff are so supportive.

The placements were invaluable and core to achieving and augmenting the theoretical aspects of the course.

I would recommend Teesside, it’s very supportive and there are so many opportunities available.

My course was varied and covered a wide range of topics. Modules were delivered by knowledgeable lecturers who had a great deal of experience within the forensic science field.

I would recommend my course and profession all day long. There is nothing better than seeing the impact you’re making...

The course is really interesting, and I feel like I will be well prepared for my first job.

My time at uni was greatly enhanced by the support from wonderful lecturers who advised and prepared me for my career.

I think the work placement module was the most important module of my course – it gave me real insight about what I needed to do.

Being a sport scientist is about so much more than domain subject knowledge.

This course equipped me with many valuable skills which allowed me to secure a job within the NHS and quickly adapt to my new role.

I can say with certainty that without the skills I acquired at Teesside, I would not have been able to secure my current job role or move to Canada.

The University has such a wide range of extra-curriculum opportunities, which set you apart from other graduates.

I am grateful for the exceptional support I received during my master's.

This course prepared me extremely well for my career, allowing me to explore a range of modules and gain insight into what work may look like in different industries.

My time at university played a significant role in preparing me for my career.

I learned about the whole human body, from muscle groups to small chemical molecules. From this I found my skill was in microbiology and from there I knew what career I wanted.

The support from the tutors is excellent. They are professional, knowledgeable and so enthusiastic.

The course is really interesting, and I feel like I will be well prepared for my first job.

The classes inspired me to study and helped to boost my confidence.
