A Series of Firsts for Salus University’s International Students
A group of international students are a step closer to realizing their dreams of becoming optometrists able to practice in the United States after having spent a week on campus recently.
For the first time, the university is utilizing a hybrid online and face-to-face delivery model for the MSc in Clinical Optometry with an Advanced Studies certificate degree program.
Salus has been working with the students since the summer of 2020 by conducting online informational webinars that then expanded into online coursework beginning in January 2021.
The students represented nine different countries — Poland, Russia, Cuba, Nigeria, Cameroon, Italy, Saudi Arabia, India and Colombia — and all work in optometry.
