Blazing a trail in the orthotics and prosthetics
profession is the first entry-level masters program graduating
class. These five students from the Master of Science in
Prosthetics and Orthotics (MSPO) program at the Georgia Institute
of Technology, Atlanta, come from diverse backgrounds and are
excited to enter the O&P field as they begin their NCOPE
