Korrine H. is a two-time graduate of Pima Medical Institute’s Online Education programs. After earning her Bachelor of Science in Radiologic Sciences (BSRS), she vowed NOT to return to school, until she received an opportunity to enroll in Pima Medical’s Master of Science in Organizational Leadership (MSOL). Learn how she balanced a demanding work and personal life with her education, and why she credits her education with providing opportunities she never thought would be available.
“In 2016, I completed my BSRS through Pima Medical Institute’s Online program. A few years later, the college offered me the chance to pursue its Master of Science in Organizational Leadership at a good tuition rate. Despite initially vowing not to return to school, I seized the opportunity.
Balancing a full-time job and two per diem positions was challenging, totaling about 70 hours of work a week. However, with two-month courses that kept me engaged, I pushed through, always carrying my laptop with me to avoid falling behind. What made this program truly valuable was its immediate application in my professional life. My capstone project focused on improving employee satisfaction by revising schedules – a project I was already implementing at my new job.
Surprisingly, my master’s degree opened doors I had not expected. A friend sought a new supervisor for their facility and my enrollment in a master’s program played a significant role in their decision to hire me. Today, I proudly serve as the MRI Supervisor at Lankenau Medical Center in Wynnewood, PA.
I am immensely thankful for my dedicated instructors, who were always accessible and supportive despite the distance. Choosing Pima Medical was a life-changing decision. It not only equipped me with the knowledge and skills for my role but also offered unwavering support and a sense of belonging within their educational community. My journey to an MRI Supervisor underscores the incredible potential that Pima Medical can unlock for its students.”
