Students in Oregon Tech’s MGT 463 Problem Solving course with Assistant Professor Ryan Cherrick recently partnered with Wilsonart Engineered Surfaces on a Lean Six Sigma project. Working directly with Wilsonart personnel, students conducted an analysis focused on manufacturing throughput and operational efficiency. By applying Lean Six Sigma methodologies, the student team identified opportunities to reduce processing time and potential improvements that could increase throughput by 20 to 30 percent across approximately half of the products manufactured under the evaluated process.

Three years, countless memories, lifelong friendships, and one unforgettable journey! To the class of 2026, thank you for the compassion, dedication, and heart you’ve brought to our program. We can’t wait to see the impact you’ll make as the next generation of nurses. 💚🩺 #ohsuschoolofnursing #ohsu #oregontech #klamathfalls #nursingschool

This spring, senior ORNS recipients represented our program at the Western Institute of Nursing (WIN) Conference as undergraduate poster presenters. Their poster featured a quality improvement project from their leadership course focused on improving access to healthcare for the unhoused population in Klamath Falls, Oregon. The conference provided an incredible opportunity to share their work, learn from nurse leaders and researchers, connect with students from the La Grande campus, gain valuable professional experience, and experience all that San Francisco 🌁 has to offer.

It’s easy to celebrate the milestone without seeing the road that led there. These past four years were shaped by a reality beneath the surface of what others could see, so this achievement means so much because I know what it took to get here. I’m deeply grateful for this chapter, and even more grateful to begin the next. RT 👉🏻RRT 🫁🎓 #respiratorytherapy #bachelorofscience #rt #oregontech

I am so excited and proud that I have crossed this finish line! After 3 years I now have a bachelors degree at 20 years old. I had some people tell me I wouldn’t make it this far and today I proved them all wrong. I wouldn’t have achieved this without so much support from so many people. My amazing parents who have supported me in everything I do. My brothers who make me laugh when I need to and remind me to slow down and live life and have fun with them. My friends who are always there when I need them and never doubted me.
