It was a great experience - we got to see all the facilities and meet other students who were interested in the same things as me.

As a parent I think it was a great opportunity for my daughter to get a taste of what life away from home could look like. The residential was well organised and the students were kept busy.
I found the whole experience really informative and fun - enjoyed the social events and academic sessions and felt like I really knew the campus by the end of it
I wanted to say thank you so much for the wonderful opportunity. My young person got to explore the University, hear from other students and professionals and gain an insight into University life. Everything seemed well run and I felt like my young person was safe at all times
My son was made to feel welcome and safe from the moment he arrived. Everyone was kind and supportive, which helped him settle in and enjoy the experience. He had a great time taking part in the activities, especially the sessions around IT technology. It’s helped him feel more confident about his future and he's excited to explore his university options.
My experience at the Teesside residential was amazing. We did a range of social activities including Level X where we enjoyed karting, bowling and crazy golf to a Halloween social night where we won prizes. The academic sessions really gave me a good understanding of what it’s like to study at university and how different subjects work. Every member of staff and the student ambassadors were so welcoming, patient and kind throughout the whole residential and there for you if you ever had any problems whilst away from home. It has 100% changed my thoughts about going to university.
I really enjoyed the diverse range of disciplines covered in the residential. I’m currently trying to decide which branch of engineering to follow, so having a taste of each was very useful. My favourite parts were the flight simulator and talking to the chemical engineer representative. As it was such a small, focussed group we were able to have an in-depth discussion that was very insightful. The social activities during the evenings allowed me to form surprisingly strong friendships with the girls in my group despite the short timeframe.
I would recommend the science residential to anyone interested in carrying out further studies in this field. I truly enjoyed the residential, from being in the labs and doing hands-on practical’s, to experiencing uni life beyond the lectures. I also appreciated being able to chat to current students and ask them questions as they were super friendly and happy to answer anything
This trip was honestly one of the best I have been on. We created a really good friendship group and enjoyed fun social activities at Tees Barrage such as kayaking and high ropes. I would really recommend coming to the residential. It’s such a good Uni and they have great facilities for cyber security, the new digital building is also really cool.
