Master of Physical Therapy.
Students enter the program after completing a bachelor's degree.
A master's thesis is not required but students must achieve a B average in all course work, receive a positive evaluation on all clinical internships, and successfully complete a final examination which involves preparing and defending a case study. The faculty adviser serves as the student's supervisory committee. The curriculum emphasizes the scientific method and the requirements of the scientific process in clinical practice. All courses require the student to rely on published scientific evidence for justification of their practice. This weaving of the scientific method is bolstered by a logically organized and sequential building of learning experiences.
