What You’ll Learn
Our Doctor of Physical Therapy program gives you the clinical and critical thinking skills you’ll need to care holistically for your patients as individuals. Classroom lectures in treatment interventions, injury prevention, and more are infused with case-based learning activities, allowing you to work with your peers to problem-solve and develop valuable clinical skills.
You’ll learn from experienced D.P.T. faculty, the majority of whom are board-certified clinical specialists in the areas of orthopedic, sports, neurological, geriatric, and pediatric patient care, who bring the latest contemporary practice principles to your classroom. You’ll also work side-by-side on professional research, including opportunities to co-author articles in peer-reviewed publications and/or present your findings at national and international conferences.
