Welcome to Oregon Tech
Oregon Institute of Technology is the only public, accredited institute of technology in the Pacific Northwest. We partner with business and industry leaders to ensure our programs adapt to new technologies and workforce demands.
Our applied approach to teaching, which blends theory and practice, is the main reason our alumni are so avidly recruited. Whether they study software engineering, vascular technology, management, or dental hygiene, Oregon Tech students have amazing opportunities to apply what they learn in lab-based classes, clinics, externships and workplaces. This practical focus is reinforced in the classroom by instructors who come to Oregon Tech with relevant business, industrial, or clinical experience.
And in every program, major studies are underscored by a general-education core that broadens students’ understanding of the world and teaches them to communicate effectively, solve problems and think for themselves.
At Oregon Tech, students find a robust university atmosphere personalized by individual interactions with professors and staff. A total enrollment of about 3,500 allows for an intimate campus environment distinguished by small classes and a student-to-faculty ratio of 20:1. This personal approach provides many benefits of a prestigious private education at a public price. Specific learning communities and seminars are in place to smooth the transition to college life and to promote students’ academic and personal success.
Oregon Tech, a public, state-supported institution belonging to the Oregon University System, is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. Individual programs also are accredited by the appropriate professional organizations.
