Professional Dress

Students are expected to dress appropriately for both fieldwork and classroom work and in any other situation or setting in which they are on Institute business. In the fieldwork site, students must adhere to the dress code of the specific institution to which they are assigned.  For laboratory classes, the student must wear clothing that allows free movement and access to the body parts being studied. When guest patients are brought into class, students must be in business casual dress when specified. Students who are dressed inappropriately will be asked to leave.  When representing the Institute in another setting or when interacting with patients/guests at the Institute, professional attire is required. Shirts/blouses that expose the midriff and pants that do not adequately cover the body when bending/stooping over are not acceptable.
