I’ve met friends for life and had unforgettable experiences.

(5)·By Lilia B·Biology· Jun 2026
When I first got accepted into Teesside, I didn’t know what to expect because I went through clearing. However, university has been one of the best times of my life. The accommodation is amazing and so close to campus. The campus itself is beautiful, everything is within walking distance, and it feels very homely. I am so happy I ended up here and truly believe it happened for a reason.

Tees Experience

(5)·By Ethan O·Sport Journalism· Jun 2023
Teesside University is a facilitative, greatly supportive and well organised campus.
On my first day I was helped in finding my correct buildings for my lectures by the caring volunteers. I was initially nervous by the surroundings, but following an easy tour by my lecturers alongside my fellow classmates, I quickly formed good relationships. This was additionally aided by the great social opportunities the campus provides, local pubs aswell as the student union located on campus are sociable venues that allowed me to easily fit in as a student. I am currently four months into my course and couldn't be happier with my experience so far, I have no doubts this will only continue up until my graduation and can't recommend Teesside University enough to anyone thinking about enrolling.

The best place on earth!!

(5)·By Hannah G·Criminology· Jun 2023
University was the best time of my life. Being at Teesside was great to stay close to home but live a uni experience. I made friends from all over the country and continue to see them today. I had great support from all teachers through the duration of my degree and masters degree!

Professional Policing at Teesside University

(5)·By Jagraj S·Professional Policing· Jun 2023
The modules are well designed as they have been designed to fit the standards set by the College of Policing. All modules have their own importance and you can see the linkage between them over the 3 years. The staff are a mixture of former police officers and academics which allows students to obtain the best knowledge. The social life is good with many different events daily.

Psychology / Criminology, Year 2

(5)·By Chloe M·Psychology· Jul 2021
Freshers week was informative and engaging. There were plenty of opportunities to meet fellow students. The events held helped people make friends easily. I don't live in the accommodation but from what I've heard it's excellent. The new student accommodation building looks very modern and well designed. The facilities are brilliant and encourage socialising which is great for people who might struggle to make friends. There is a silent study floor in the library that provides optimal conditions for studying. The course is brilliant as it allows a deeper understanding of why humans behave in the way we do. The staff are incredibly supportive and are always able to help. City life is incredibly enjoyable as there are numerous pubs, bars and restaurants as well as museums and an art gallery. We are also 15 minutes away from the beach.

Biology / Biotechnology, Year 2

(5)·By Kainat N·Biology· Jul 2021
It was really good! We had so many different events and loads of free goodies!! I don't live in accommodation but from what I've seen it's really spacious and a good environment to live in Library is amazing! If COVID wasn't a thing I'd be there every day! The lecturers are amazing! They acted to you and are always open and explain things differently if you don't understand things. Amazing because everything is in walking distance.

Other Subjects Allied To Medicine, Year 3

(5)·By Amekia F·Medicine· Oct 2018
My University experience has been great between the social and educational aspects! I would recommend the University to anyone who asks! My involvement with the development of the course I am doing has shaped the way it will be for future cohorts and even outsiders looking in.

By taking part in Sport it has enhanced my social skills, kept me fit and allowed me to make new friends that I will keep after I leave the University.
