Patient care begins early in the program and continues throughout all four years with increasing responsibilities under our clinical faculty's supervision at the University Eye Center (UEC) and through fourth-year externships that include sites around the country and abroad.
The optometry program goals are to graduate optometrists who are knowledgeable, clinically competent, professional, and ethical. In addition, we seek to prepare our students for the future of optometric practice by teaching them to think critically as life-long learners who understand the scientific basis of the profession and apply the fundamentals of evidence-based practice to patient care.
