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.

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.

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

Teesside University helped me get closer to my goals – from aspiring to work in the games industry to securing my first job.

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.

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.'

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 careers advice and guidance from my tutors regarding creating my CV and application letters has been significant in gaining interviews.

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.

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

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

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

I would recommend Teesside University and my course. It helped to get me where I am today.

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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