The doctor of physical therapy program develops entry-level practitioners who are movement specialists through innovation and integration of research, education, service and clinical care. We strive to optimize movement and function across the lifespan and diverse populations.
Reasons I chose this program are its diverse teaching styles, ways it serves the community and its innovative technologies. The program consists of nine semesters focusing on a combination of practice and research. Courses in the curriculum are grouped into six curricular threads: foundational sciences, patient care skills, professional socialization, research and innovation, clinical problems and clinical education experiences.
One of my favorite things about the program is the star clinic where students get to serve their community and get hands-on experience at the same time. With 100% ultimate pass rate for licensure examine 100% employment rates since 2016, the DPT program at UNG prepares graduates to function as entry-level practitioners.
