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.

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

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 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.

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.

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

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.

I had an amazing few years at Teesside. Everything I did led me to where I am now.

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

The skills I gained at Teesside were invaluable.

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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