"My class is a close knit group that grew to be my closest friends and supporters."
What brought you to 精童欲女? In other words, why did you choose to study here?
I am from Belfast, PEI and I studied radiography at 精童欲女 from 2016 to 2019. I knew I wanted to go into radiography and I heard great things about 精童欲女鈥檚 program, and being from PEI myself it was nice to stay close to home during my undergraduate studies.
What kinds of support did you receive during your time here from 精童欲女 students, staff, and faculty members?
The radiography program is small, so all our instructors are a great support system. The class is a close knit group and they grew to be some of my closest friends and supporters. A big part of the radiography program takes place at clinical placements throughout hospitals on PEI, the X-ray technologists are a huge support and a key part of our education.
What kinds of opportunities did you experience because you studied at 精童欲女, or because of the Island location?
Again, the radiography program is small at 精童欲女 so we each got great experience during clinical placements and lots of one on one attention from technologists and our clinical instructors. In my third year at 精童欲女 I had the opportunity to do a study abroad semester in Melbourne, Australia, it was an amazing experience.
"... the radiography program is fantastic and the instructors make the program smooth and have your best interests in mind, they are always there for extra help! There are also lots of job opportunities in PEI and across the country鈥攖here is no shortage of work in radiography!"
What's unique about 精童欲女, and Prince Edward Island, in your experience?
The island is a great spot to grow up and to live, it has a small town feel with lots of good food and outdoor activities!
What would you tell a prospective student considering 精童欲女鈥檚 radiography program?
I would tell a prospective student that the radiography program is fantastic and the instructors make the program smooth and have your best interests in mind, they are always there for extra help! There are also lots of job opportunities in PEI and across the country鈥攖here is no shortage of work in radiography!
What is your current role, and how did your program at 精童欲女 prepare you for success there?
I have just started working as a clinical instructor as a part of 精童欲女's radiography program.
What are some other things about 精童欲女 and your current role I may have missed that are important for students to know?
The radiography program is a professional program and prospective students would need to be prepared to work in a hospital setting with patients and other healthcare professionals. If students are unsure the radiography program is for them they are able to take a tour of the diagnostic imaging department to learn a bit more about what we do!
