International Institute of Orthotics and Prosthetics (IIOP)

IIOP was established in 2015 and was designed to serve as a resource center for educators, researchers, practitioners, and patients. The program started in 2005 and was developed into a master's program in 2012. A new O & P campus was purchased, designed and remodeled in 2017 to house the National Certification Testing Center and the master's program.

Student research affords an opportunity to incorporate patient feedback to assist with study design while actively contributing to the field of orthotics and prosthetics. 

The research faculty meet with those students for weekly Q&A sessions relate their research projects and other class assignments for the research course. 

During fourth semester, the students leave campus for their second research course while attending their 200-hour clinical rotation externship. This provides students the opportunity to work on their research projects under the mentorship of clinicians in the field of O&P.

Jobs in the field of orthotics and prosthetics (O&P) are on the rise. 

Projected employment growth rate changes according to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics state a two-fold increase in O&P employment vs all other occupations. 

Since our inception IIOP graduates consistently meet 100% placement rates for post-graduate resident employment.
