Student views

Teesside is innovative with excellent teaching, and a diverse culture putting students at the heart of everything.

Lessons are conducted in lecture rooms as well as industry-standard labs which give us practical hands-on experience and learning. Every session is different and thoroughly engaging, and the staff are very supportive.

There is a mixture of classroom sessions and practical exercises designed to put you in real life scenarios that you work your way through.

This combination appealed to me as it aligns perfectly with my career aspirations.

My course didn’t just provide technical knowledge, it shaped how I think, solve problems and approach real-world challenges. The practical projects, presentations, and the opportunity to work with digital tools and gain hands-on lab experience helped me become more confident and prepared for industry expectations.

The highlight of my student experience has been realising how far I’ve come, something I couldn’t see at the beginning of my studies. I’ve developed skills I never thought I would, from technical tools to problem-solving and critical thinking.

The services are amazing, especially in career advice, student support and volunteering opportunities.

As an international master’s student, the most valuable experience at Teesside has been the facilities. I have had access to the newest industry standard software, and technology.

What I appreciate most about my course is the blend of theoretical knowledge and practical application. The modules are designed to be engaging and offer practical placement experience to train on the job while receiving constructive feedback through observations from tutors and mentors.
