Student views

Moving from my home country to the UK and adjusting to a new culture while managing my studies at Teesside University has been a significant journey of growth. I developed critical, technical and professional skills, which allowed me to apply what I learned effectively.

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.

My course didn’t just provide technical knowledge, it shaped how I think, solve problems and approach real-world challenges. The practical projects, presentations, and the opportunity to work with digital tools and gain hands-on lab experience helped me become more confident and prepared for industry expectations.

The services are amazing, especially in career advice, student support and volunteering opportunities.

There is a mixture of classroom sessions and practical exercises designed to put you in real life scenarios that you work your way through.

The degree’s unique attribute lies in its ability to provide a nurturing environment where creative freedom flourishes, empowering individuals to boldly express their ideas while benefiting from expert guidance throughout the transformative process.

The staff are excellent and pushed me to do my best and they give you their unconditional support.

If you are looking for a university which values each individual student and offers a warm welcome, then I believe Teesside University may be the right place for you.

The highlight of my student experience has been realising how far I’ve come, something I couldn’t see at the beginning of my studies. I’ve developed skills I never thought I would, from technical tools to problem-solving and critical thinking.

The school and its lecturers are top-notch at imparting knowledge, and Teesside has the environment and infrastructure to facilitate a positive student experience.
