Curriculum
Physical Therapy Undergraduate Program
 | |  |
The program in physical therapy is a five program in which students earn a
bachelor's degree in Pre-Physical Therapy and a Doctor of Physical Therapy
degree. Students enter as first-year students and immediately begin undergraduate
preparatory studies that incorporate foundational sciences, social sciences, arts and
humanities coursework. At the end of the third year of studies, students enter the
first year of doctoral work while completing undergraduate credits. After four years,
the student earns a bachelor of science degree in pre-physical therapy and
continues with professional coursework. Upon successful completion of all program
requirements, the graduate is awarded a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree and is
eligible to apply for state licensure.
Professional level coursework includes content in anatomy, exercise physiology,
kinesiology, clinical sciences, organization and delivery of healthcare, research
methodology, and statistics, as well as full-time clinical experiences in approved
clinical education facilities. The curriculum is subject to modification to ensure a
comprehensive, integrated sequence of experiences leading to a physical therapy
education of the highest possible quality.
