It was a great experience - we got to see all the facilities and meet other students who were interested in the same things as me.

As a parent I think it was a great opportunity for my daughter to get a taste of what life away from home could look like. The residential was well organised and the students were kept busy.
This trip was honestly one of the best I have been on. We created a really good friendship group and enjoyed fun social activities at Tees Barrage such as kayaking and high ropes. I would really recommend coming to the residential. It’s such a good Uni and they have great facilities for cyber security, the new digital building is also really cool.
I couldn't praise the residential highly enough. It was well planned, well organised and just excellent. They absolutely loved it, it has really helped them grow in confidence and they made friends that they have already met up with, from all around the country. It has also confirmed that they want to study psychology at university. Thank you so much for offering this opportunity to them.
I would really recommend going on the residential as you’ll learn about the variety of courses they have to offer and the different facilities available to enhance your learning. The social aspect of the residential is also amazing. Getting to meet new people, who are doing different things and chatting about their plans gives you something to think about. The staff are so lovely and accommodating, making sure they’re there for you while you are away from home. Overall, 10/10 experience and couldn’t recommend more.
I would recommend the science residential to anyone interested in carrying out further studies in this field. I truly enjoyed the residential, from being in the labs and doing hands-on practical’s, to experiencing uni life beyond the lectures. I also appreciated being able to chat to current students and ask them questions as they were super friendly and happy to answer anything
I really enjoyed the diverse range of disciplines covered in the residential. I’m currently trying to decide which branch of engineering to follow, so having a taste of each was very useful. My favourite parts were the flight simulator and talking to the chemical engineer representative. As it was such a small, focussed group we were able to have an in-depth discussion that was very insightful. The social activities during the evenings allowed me to form surprisingly strong friendships with the girls in my group despite the short timeframe.
My son was made to feel welcome and safe from the moment he arrived. Everyone was kind and supportive, which helped him settle in and enjoy the experience. He had a great time taking part in the activities, especially the sessions around IT technology. It’s helped him feel more confident about his future and he's excited to explore his university options.
The residential fostered an environment where curiosity and innovation thrived. We were empowered to explore the world of engineering in hands-on, practical ways. For any girl considering a career in engineering, this residential is an amazing opportunity to ignite your passion, learn new skills, and build connections. It was an unforgettable experience!
