Student and Alumni Profiles

Heather White '12

"At UNE, in the DPT program, after the first month or so the class becomes a tight knit community. Also, the third-year DPT students have provided much advice, insight, and comfort to us. The faculty members’ doors are always open, and because of the small class size, the professors and students really get to know one another." read more

Christina Cronin '12

"I feel that it is very easy to talk to all of my professors in and out of the classroom, and they are all more than happy to take the extra time to answer questions. The professors are not “out to get you” or to weed out the class. On the first day of classes the professors told us that they would like to see each and everyone of us walk across the stage at graduation. It is a great feeling knowing that the professors are here to help in any way possible to help us succeed." read more

"One thing I find very comforting at UNE is the availability of the professors on campus. There have been many occasions where you go to the professor's office hoping for a little extra help and you find the professor in their office with the door open and ready to help." read more

"First and foremost, the class size here is very desirable; with less than 30 students, one-on-one time with faculty is almost a daily occurrence. The student involvement with faculty of the program and other faculty on the campus goes above and beyond anything I've seen before." read more

Emily Malanchuk '08

"I have had the opportunity to work for a nearby rehabilitation hospital as a therapy aide on the weekends. I believe this has allowed me to have better interpersonal skills with patients, allowed me to observe all kinds of therapy treatments, and help understand better some of my classes." read more

Dustin Hurd '08

"I am confident the combination of coursework at UNE and clinical affiliations away from campus have helped me to be a strong clinician." read more

Jennifer Major '07
