Meet Our Students: Jonathan Homer
My name is Jonathan Homer. I am a senior student here at the University of Idaho, Idaho Falls
campus, working on the Industrial Technology program.
Tell us about the University of Idaho, Idaho Falls campus.
The Idaho Falls campus of the University of Idaho offers great flexibility in scheduling.
For me, personally, I've had the opportunity to be both a full-time and a part-time student,
as I've pursued my degree.
Tell us about your experience.
As a non-traditional student here at the University of Idaho, Idaho Falls campus, I've worked
full-time for my employer, Idaho National Laboratory, as well as being able to take
evening and after-hour classes with the university. Doing so, I have been able to finish my undergraduate
degree in just a few years, and be able to continue to maintain full employment and provide
for my family.
How about the programs?
One of the lessons that I've learned from my experiences of the past few years, has
been that the programs here at the University of Idaho are designed specifically to work
and to integrate together in a specific order. By following the order and the process which
is outlined, it's much easier to be able to get the classes in the schedule that works
for both my schedule as well as allows me to continue my education in a very logical
manner.
Why did you choose Industrial Technology?
When I was beginning my education process here at the University of Idaho, there were
several programs offered at the local campus that I had to choose from. I selected the
Industrial Technology program because of its applicability to my current career as well
as the opportunities that it presented as I move forward in the workplace. I've been
grateful for the choice that I made. I'm also grateful for the diversity of both programs
and classes being taught here.
How flexible is the program?
By combining online classes, in-person evening classes, and other technologies, I've had
the flexibility to complete my degree both from my home, as well as being able to attend
a local campus. It's been great!
I recommend the University of Idaho, Idaho Falls campus, to all those students, both
traditional and non-traditional, as they look to improve their education, and be able to
develop their career and move forward.
