Fieldwork Students
Interested in fieldwork placement?
We accept applicants for fieldwork students who have a strong interest in pediatrics and would like to land in Eugene or Corvallis after graduation.
If you would like to apply for placement, your Fieldwork Coordinator will need to reach out to us. At that time, we will confirm whether there is availability that matches your placement period and complete an affliation agreement. Please provide your Fieldwork Coordinator with a cover letter and resume to submit with your placement dates. Before confirming placement, we will schedule a virtual interview with you to ensure that we are a great fit!
What you can expect...
"The biggest thing that stood out to me, was how CTD creates an environment that supports it's staff/therapist in a way that allows patients to have the best individualized care. CTD physical therapists demonstrated great use of evidence base practice, as well as incredible interdisciplinary relationships between OT and Speech. I really appreciated the relationships CTD has developed with their patients. I also enjoyed the intentionality with the staff meetings, noting useful information being shared both within the clinic and with outside referral sources (head specialists, ect.)"-PT Student
"For those that enjoy a pediatric setting, CTD provides experiences with varied clients and a supportive team environment."- OT Student
"It was such a wonderful experience and I learned so much from the supervisors, coworkers, and clients." - SLP Student
"CTD is an attractive place of employment because I get to work with a group of colleagues who really care with a variety of therapy services are offered. We are able to support positive changes in these children and family's lives to promote healthy development across the lifespan. Thanks to everyone for being so welcoming to me at CTD, these past 10 weeks have been an amazing experience."- PT Student
"I feel like I learned so much from both Marissa and Jordan, they were great! I feel a lot more comfortable with early language kiddos and with gestalt language processing, which were both something I had no experience with prior to this placement. They were both patient and super supportive with everything. Truly could not have asked for better supervisors for my last placement before my CFY." - SLP Student
"Grateful to have had the opportunity to complete my last externship here. Thank you to everyone in the clinic who has supported my growth!" - SLP Student
“I love CTD! The OT department has been so welcoming and helpful - everyone made sure I felt comfortable and offered suggestions, help, and advice so readily. I love how tight-knit the OT department is and how they all share ideas and have open discussions about OT styles, kids on their case loads, and ideas to improve treatment.” - Alex, OT Student
"Everyone is a pleasure to work with and be around! Each person I’ve interacted with is friendly, kind, helpful, and cares about the care they give. I love how committed everyone is to giving high quality care and the conversing and planning that occurs between sessions." - Terrell, PT Student
