Dear Listserve Members,

I'm writing to ask for feedback on all O&P certificate (and baccalaureate)
programs in the U.S. What the strengths of each particular program? How
would you rank the competitiveness of the applicant pools? I also hope to
combine research, development, and practice in the future. My undergrad
degree is in Biomedical Engineering. Any specific recommendations?

I also have a concern regarding volunteer internships. A professional in
the field has recently informed me that due to California labor laws, I
would only be allowed to observe practioners and technicians at work. My
hands-on experience is currently limited to a two-month internship in
Honolulu. I know this is not enough. Does anyone have any thoughts and/or
advice as to what I could do?

All replies will be sincerely appreciated! Please address them directly to
me at <Email Address Redacted>

Thank You,
Jasmine Taketa
