Testimonials
FIU was a great place for me to learn and grow as a person. It taught me
to be more independent, more determined, and to always do my personal
best. My experience at FIU was nurturing because everyone made it their
best interest to help everyone to excel. If there was anything that I
needed, everyone was glad to be of any assistance, for that I thank you! I
graduated in December 06' and not too long after (Feb 07'), I got a job as
an OB tech in VA.

I will never
forget the lessons learned nor the professional and personal growth
acquired during my training at FIU. I am currently the clinic
administrator for a mobile vascular lab in which I was instrumental in
starting 13 years ago. I am very fortunate to have had this opportunity.

I graduated
from FIU in 1981. Since that time, I have worked in our local hospital and
have become registered in several areas. I am in the process of starting
my own mobile ultrasound business. I truly enjoyed the time I spent at the
school beginning my career in ultrasound.

I am currently

I wish to
further my education at FIU due to the recommendations and information I
gained through contacting ultrasound departments of all main hospitals in
the Panhandle. Three-fourths of the personnel I spoke with had graduated
from your institution. Your school helped to build solid careers for so
many students, that I wish to also attend your school.

The training
and education I have received at FIU is invaluable. I felt really prepared
and confident beginning my career as a sonographer.

I was grateful
for the hands-on experience I had at FIU while learning ultrasound. I was
able to begin a job in ultrasound at a level that impressed my employers.
I find the field exciting and certainly challenging. Thank you FIU.

2001 Graduate
I spent a lot
of time researching ultrasound programs and FIU was the best choice by
far. The experience and knowledge I acquired from FIU is exactly what I
needed to land a job. I spent the first year after graduation working in
cardiovascular ultrasound at Baptist Hospital. My wife had a great
opportunity in Lincoln, NE so our family relocated. There were no
cardiovascular sonographer positions available in Lincoln, but there was a
position in radiology. If it were not for the solid education provided to
me from FIU I would not have been able to jump right in and work doing
abdomen, small parts, neurosonology, and OB/GYN. I was very pleased with
the education provided to me and I really miss the instructors and staff.
