'Our aim is to ensure being a student at Teesside is affordable to as many people as possible. We have introduced generous bursaries and scholarships to provide our students with a comprehensive financial support package.
Also in recent years we have invested tens of millions in developing the campus so we can provide a rich, rewarding and fruitful experience for our students.'
Vice-Chancellor Professor Graham Henderson
