Mission Statement

Provide state-of-the-art education in a learning, caring and nurturing environment to allow students to develop and to become productive members of society, thereby continuing with the time-honored duty of protecting the public's health, safety, and welfare.

Our program encourages students to develop critical skills—in communication, in new tools for professional practice and in setting lifelong learning  goals. We emphasize professional ethics and the value of service to their profession. As a result, our graduates are highly sought by industry as they begin their careers,  or by graduate schools if they wish to pursue further studies. The numbers support our success—in the past several years, nearly 75% of our students received job offers or enrolled in graduate school before graduation. Almost one hundred percent of our graduates received job offers or enrolled in graduate schools within three months of graduation.
