In the meantime, I would go on to become a licensed massage therapist for the last 10 years. When I caught wind that the program would be starting, I jumped on the opportunity.</p><p><strong>2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What do you like most about your program?</strong><br>I like being in a small cohort, this allows for a very personal connection to the faculty and to the other students.</p><p><strong>3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What are you passionate about changing within this particular field and why?</strong><br>I am not personally interested in changing the field. I am a clinician at heart and soul. I will put my whole being into the day-to-day &nbsp;patient care at a local clinic here in Klamath Falls. However, a return to ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ to teach future generations might be an avenue I would pursue if given the opportunity.</p><p><strong>4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;What have been some of your favorite classes and why?</strong><br>All of the Direct Patient Care classes have been wonderful. Especially Management of neurological conditions (I &amp; II) as well as treatment of musculoskeletal conditions (I &amp; II). However, my absolute favorite has been the opportunity to participate in a clinical rotation setting at a local clinic here in town, and I look forward to more of these experiences.&nbsp;<br><br><strong>5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there anything about ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ that you wish everyone knew about?</strong><br>The hidden gem of southern Oregon.&nbsp;<br><br><strong>6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Is there anything more that you would like to share with future students about campus/what you wish you knew before beginning your program?</strong><br>A good foundation of neuroanatomy and biochemistry is not necessary but will help in understanding key concepts.&nbsp;</p> </div> </div> Student Fri, 14 Feb 2025 17:07:49 +0000 ashley.vanessen@oit.edu 9419 at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ receives $25k grant from The Lemelson Foundation to expand Ready, Set, Innovate! program /news/oregon-tech-receives-25k-grant-lemelson-foundation-expand-ready-set-innovate-program <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ receives $25k grant from The Lemelson Foundation to expand Ready, Set, Innovate! program</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span>ashley.vanesse…</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2025-02-11T11:07:54-08:00" title="Tuesday, February 11, 2025 - 11:07" class="datetime">Tue, 02/11/2025 - 11:07</time> </span> Tue, 11 Feb 2025 19:07:54 +0000 ashley.vanessen@oit.edu 9409 at ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ Nuclear Medicine student chosen for national leadership academy /news/oregon-tech-nuclear-medicine-student-chosen-national-leadership-academy <span class="field field--name-title field--type-string field--label-hidden">¾ÅÉ«ÊÓÆµ Nuclear Medicine student chosen for national leadership academy</span> <span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span>ashley.vanesse…</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden"><time datetime="2025-02-11T10:28:22-08:00" title="Tuesday, February 11, 2025 - 10:28" class="datetime">Tue, 02/11/2025 - 10:28</time> </span> Tue, 11 Feb 2025 18:28:22 +0000 ashley.vanessen@oit.edu 9408 at
