A fifth internship is optional depending upon the Applied Project Track to which the student is assigned. Clinical internships provide opportunities for the students to integrate and apply theory, knowledge, and skills acquired during the academic year to a variety of patient populations. In keeping with the mission and philosophy of the program, clinical internships are designed around multiple experiences in physical therapy. Within this framework, students have the opportunity to pursue areas of interest including, but not limited to, pediatrics, geriatrics, sports medicine, industrial medicine, etc. The College of St. Scholastica is the only independent private college in Northeastern Minnesota.
