I work as a social media executive at LADbible group, writing articles and interviewing some of the biggest names in sport.

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

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

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

Since I’ve graduated I’ve worked at Amazon, Duco and Snap Inc – the company that owns Snapchat. I’ve been able to apply what I learned at Teesside University to each job.'

The facilities at Teesside, including the motion capture studio, gave me valuable experience with technology that I would usually only encounter in industry.

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.

I now work for a well-respected Solicitors as a Human Resources Coordinator and feel that going to University has been the best decision I have ever made.

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.

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

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

Teesside University developed my design thinking and problem-solving skills, encouraging me to find surprising lateral solutions to briefs.

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 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.

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

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.

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

I’ve got a great foundation on which to build on professionally, and it was a truly character-building experience.

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

When I looked at different universities, Teesside stood out for the quality of its animation work and the number of graduates working in well-known studios.

I use the skills I learned at university in my everyday work and will continue to use them throughout my career.

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.

The industry links at Teesside are so valuable in securing your first job out of university – which can be a scary prospect – but if you ask for it the help is there and always willingly given.

I now work as a nuclear defence manager for the Ministry of Defence, where I facilitate the production, design and maintenance of the current and future development of nuclear reactors

One of the best things about the course was having lectures and briefs set by outsourced professionals such as Atomhawk and Ubisoft.

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.
