Academic support units
Whether you have questions or are just curious about where you can go for academic support, the following units will be helpful for you:
Student organizations
Students are involved in a number of student groups located across Oregon. Get involved and connected by seeking out your fellow students in these areas.
Bridges Collaborative Care Clinic
Student-run free clinics have a long-standing history of helping meet the health needs of underserved populations while also enriching students' professional education. With this in mind, students from Portland State University (PSU), OHSU, and Oregon State University (OSU) have joined forces with Transition Projects (TPI) to take student-run free clinics to a new level of interprofessional innovation by launching Bridges Collaborative Care Clinic (BCCC).
"We're all here as resources and advocates to help you be successful in your academic program and continue your professional development. I look forward to meeting you."
