“One of the first things I noticed as I started the school year at Oregon Tech during Fall of 2022, is the diversity found in my classroom. My classmates and I have different ethnicities and ways of living and thinking. My conversations with them have contributed to my increased level of awareness regarding attitudes and personalities.”

| Mechanical Engineering
“My greatest learning experience here at Oregon Tech so far has been through labs and my on-campus job. These both have put me in scenarios in which I have to take what I learned in the classroom/training and apply it to real-life scenarios, which has been immensely helpful for me to see how everything I'm learning applies and can be used in the real world.”

“My greatest learning experience at Oregon Tech is likely the opportunity and privilege of being able to shadow nuc med techs at Sky Lakes in their Nuclear medicine department. It has been extremely helpful to witness the field I am studying in action and be able to see all of my knowledge learned in the classroom applied live and in action.”

| Dental Hygiene
“I chose Oregon Tech because it offers a unique three-year dental hygiene program that allows its students to receive their bachelor's degree in dental hygiene, which will allow me to adventure outside of clinical hygiene, such as working in education, public health, business, or research fields.”

| Environmental Sciences
“I first attended Oregon Tech at the Portland-Metro campus in Wilsonville, near where I live, before going to Klamath Falls. I was taking classes toward an Engineering degree due to my strengths in Mathematics, but I decided to switch to Biology / Environmental Sciences after taking some inspirational classes from Professor Jherime Kellermann and realizing I wanted more than a desk job.”
