Making a difference – corporate social responsibility

At Teesside University, we can help you achieve your corporate social responsibility (CSR) goals through a meaningful, results-driven partnership with our scholarship programme.

Students in the Campus heart on campus

Our scholarships are designed to develop local talent, widen access to higher education, and improve retention for underrepresented communities. By investing in our students, your organisation can make a real and measurable impact on:

  • social mobility – helping talented individuals overcome financial and social barriers
  • workforce development – nurturing skilled, career-ready graduates
  • regional economic growth – strengthening the communities you serve.

This collaboration also helps demonstrate your commitment to education, community upliftment, and long-term capacity building.


How your organisation can get involved

Through the Vice-Chancellor’s Teesside Transformation Fund, we’ve expanded our philanthropic scholarship portfolio to create life-changing opportunities for the next generation, with a strong focus on students from low-income backgrounds and areas where higher education participation is low.

Scholarships and bursaries are essential in:

  • attracting and retaining outstanding students
  • breaking down barriers to higher education
  • empowering underrepresented groups to succeed and thrive.

More ways to partner with us

Your organisation can also support our students by:

  • providing mentoring opportunities
  • delivering guest talks and career workshops
  • establishing graduation prizes to celebrate academic excellence.

Together, we can nurture the next generation of professionals who will make a positive difference in both industry and society.


Let’s make an impact – together.
