UNE does a great job of connecting your classes to outside experiences. What I’m learning in my classes applies to my experience in the community.

Through hands-on experience in the field, I’m able to understand a little bit deeper what certain clients will need in terms of assistive technology. I think it will help me be a better occupational therapist.

I've really enjoyed how I get to take not only the general science classes but also so many patient-care-centered classes. It’s important to be trained on what to do in many different situations with different types of patients.

One of the biggest things for me has been getting involved. Once I was doing more than just passively going to my classes, I found that I was having a much more enriching experience.

I just fell in love with the community here at UNE. I wanted a place where everyone knows each other, and that’s what I found.

There was a lot of background and guidance to be able to do what I wanted, but I had the freedom to make decisions and lead. They set the stage, and I played the show.

The thing that drew me to Health, Wellness and Occupational Studies...was its holistic approach to wellness and paying equal attention in the curriculum to the physical aspects of the body but also the psychological aspects.
