Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

Middlesbrough is really student-focused, which made settling in so easy. And the gaming facilities are incredible.

I loved my course. I loved the fact it was very hands-on especially the News Days module. And I found that the teachers were very helpful throughout my studies.

The thing I loved most about my time on the course was how I was able to really concentrate on developing the skills that I felt would help me progress into a future career.

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

The course helped us to prepare for, and be mindful of, going into industry after graduation.

My time at Teesside made me more confident in my work. It got me started with my contact network, which has been invaluable in the process of getting to where I am now.

My time at Teesside University helped me to understand my purpose in life.

My time at University gave me the confidence and skills to achieve the goals I wanted from my choice in career.

My degree gave me the skills I needed for my career, from problem-solving in Maya to using other software at the university that I later used in my current job.

The facilities available on campus had everything I needed when I needed it.

The course offered an optional work placement, where I could gain the exposure to the industry I needed, that would set me up for a role after graduating.

I was a bit nervous about coming as an international student initially, but Teesside has a good mix of cultures which made me more comfortable.

I had an amazing time and I've continued to keep a close, personal connection with Teesside University. I am very proud of my roots and very excited to see the future talent the university is going to produce.

I’ve made great connections for the future which is important in this industry. It’s helped me by opening my eyes to the opportunities there are.

When I go to new studios I always know people through the connections I made at Animex - it's definitely made me feel at home in the industry.

I had a lot of support from the placement and careers service. They often ran lectures on tips for CVs, interviews and networking sites such as LinkedIn.

Teesside University is warm, welcoming and full of lots of incredible people, you'll be surprised how comfortable you feel here.

I enjoyed the freedom to explore projects that complemented my skills and being able to expand my knowledge at my own pace.

The course expanded my knowledge and helped me grow professionally in areas I never imagined. I did it, so can you.

Without the University’s careers service and constant LinkedIn sessions, I wouldn’t have had a CV that would have impressed industry professionals.

I look back on my time with great fondness. Teesside University provided me with the greatest of life experiences.

There are some fantastic networking opportunities there and it has led me to where I am now.

Both the course and the facilities at Teesside University were outstanding.

Being able to decide on how I wanted to develop my own study was the best thing about the course.

I heard that Teesside was one of the best places to study visual effects so I visited an open day and that made my mind up.

The course offered value for money – it’s got me where I am today, and without it I would not have been able to benefit from these fantastic opportunities.

I'd recommend it as a friendly place - both the university and town, with excellent, ambitious lecturers. It gave me a love of literature.

It is one of the best universities in the world for creative industries and will continue to be so. Our lecturers were great at helping us succeed and linking us with industry.

I would recommend Teesside. The course developed me a lot as a person technically and personally. The lecturers are all friendly and always happy to help out, and of course the area is great for nightlife.

After visiting the campus and meeting the course tutors it was a no brainer, this was the place for me to study.
