Opportunities
Our graduates are extremely successful in a wide variety of areas in allied health and are in great demand by employers. For example, a graduating senior in the respiratory therapy program typically receives two to five job offers. In many instances these offers are extended prior to graduation. Recently many of these students also have been offered “signing bonuses” to agree to work for a specific healthcare provider. The degree also affords Millersville graduates many options for postgraduate study and thus many opportunities for career advancement. Some of our graduates have continued their health-oriented education in medical school and optometry school.
