Computing, Engineering & Digital Technologies

Paul studied mechanical engineering and now works as a Lead Mechanical Engineer at Nifco.

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

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

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.

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

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

I’ve developed so many skills that will help me in the future

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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

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

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.

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.

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.
