University of Teesside tops league table

30-04-2008

Mechanical Engineering at the University of Teesside has been placed First in the 2008 table

Quote. From Dr Paul Shelton

“Naturally, our course does meet the specific needs of the local engineering supply chain companies, many of whom support the process industries in the Tees Valley and the wider North East region. But we also attract a number of sponsored overseas students from areas of the world such as the Gulf States.
Much of the project work within the course is industry based or aimed at solving real industry problem, and this is a major attraction, as is the fact that virtually all our graduates go on to have successful careers in the industry.
Everyone involved with the course here on Teesside is delighted we have topped this league table in The Guardian and we would pay tribute also to a tremendous group of students, who are inspired and determined to make an impact in the engineering world.”
Professor Simon Hodgson
“Everyone involved with the course here on Teesside is delighted we have topped this league table in The Guardian and we would pay tribute also to a tremendous group of students, who are inspired and determined to make an impact in the engineering world.
We are delighted with this reaffirmation of the excellence of our university's engineering programme, which is designed to produce graduates with the skills employers desperately need, in our region and across the U.K.

We are proud to offer a programme which both offers development opportunities for upskilling existing technical staff, and which also attracts students from around the world, bringing them into our region, one of the country's most important for the engineering, process and energy sectors.

Significantly, this recognition occurs at the start of a new phase of investment and development of our engineering provision, which will enhance it still further with aim to consolidate our position as a leading and growing provider of engineering education internationally."
