Message From the Dean

The College of Optometry at Pacific University is an amazing and dynamic program, where we focus on an advanced education that allows our students to be successful and make a difference. We want our students to have a broad understanding of our profession by capitalizing on the collective intelligence within our program, while allowing our students to follow their passion.

At the College of Optometry, we have developed a community where members feel supported and valued. Our student clubs provide opportunities for students to connect and build community. Our faculty and staff are invested in your success and welcome the opportunity to get to know our students.

As Dean of the College of Optometry, my goal is to ensure that Pacific University College of Optometry continues to be a leader in optometric education, through a diverse program that helps to advance our profession and our community. I look forward to having you be a part of our community that inspires everyone involved, from prospective students to alumni.
