MSc Digital Marketing - Batch of 2025

2.3

Very limited opportunities.

Tips: The university will not be complicit in any kind of fee delays also there will be zero support from the university if you want to join any placements, as you paid money to get a placement year but they will not place you in any good organisation. Staff are good but no practical work, only reading from slides. You need to be very active to get a chance to take some advantage of this university.

Extremely disappointed with lack of support for international student.

Tips: I am very disappointed with Teesside University particularly in how they handled submissions and my visa related concerns. As an international student I expect better support and understanding especially given how much we pay in tuition fees. I would not recommend.
