A great feature of Pitt’s MOT program is the individual attention given by the faculty.  The professors treat the students as colleagues, and are very willing to offer assistance.  They truly have an ‘open-door’ office policy.  Even several years out of the program, I know I am still able to contact the faculty for professional advice.
