Hear From Graduates
"I have absolutely loved my time with Northwood Tech. Not to sound cliche, but I felt as though the instructors truly cared about how students were doing and whether or not they felt overwhelmed or were struggling. I went to a larger university previously and I did not feel the same vibe from them."
"The Health Information Technology program at Northwood Tech has prepared me to enter the health care field in a variety of roles. Before starting the HIT program I never knew how many jobs new and emerging technology has brought to the medical field."
