Putting our students first at Summer Graduation

Thousands of graduates celebrated their academic achievements at Summer Graduation 2022. The ceremonies were extremely successful, thanks to a remarkable team effort that exemplified our Team Teesside ethos.

To recognise this, we have produced a short video montage to celebrate you - the incredibly diverse, talented, and supportive people who always put our students first.

We hope you enjoy watching the video and spotting friends, colleagues and possibly even yourself, and that you feel inspired by what we achieved by working together.

Team Teesside means feeling supported by colleagues that care and ask if you’re okay and really mean it, and inspirational provision for local students who never thought they’d get to go to university.

Helen Kirk, PhD student , School of Social Sciences, Humanities & Law

I feel privileged to be a part of Team Teesside because it's a community like no other. You are working collectively to achieve a common goal which makes your work truly valued. There’s a sense of pride and belonging that comes with being part of Team Teesside.

Demi Falshaw, Student Adviser (Mental Health and Autism), Student & Library Services

I'm new to Teesside but have worked in HE for many years. I know that if all staff, no matter their role, have a passion to deliver a fantastic student experience our students will feel this and benefit from it. I've found this shared passion at TU - this is Team Teesside.

Dr Nicola Watchman Smith, Deputy Director Student Learning, Student Learning & Academic Registry

Team Teesside has given me the opportunity for me to work somewhere for over 20 years, with talented friends who want the best for the each other, the University, the town and the region. There’s nowhere else I’d rather work and no other colleagues would could compare. Long may it continue.
