Physical Therapy

Starting January 2012!

The Department of Physical Therapy will begin offering a transitional Doctor of Physical Therapy (T-DPT) Program
This transitional program will offer a modified version of the current DPT program to practicing therapists who graduated with a Master or Bachelor of Physical Therapy degree as their entry-level professional degree. The first class will begin in January 2012; the deadline for spring 2012 admission is December 15, 2011. For more information about the T-DPT Program, click here.

Bachelor’s degree-prepared physical therapists applying for admission into the T-DPT program may request a waiver of two courses: Clinical Research and Current Issues in Musculoskeletal, Neurologic, Cardiopulmonary Physical Therapy and Orthotics and Prosthetics. To request a waiver for one or both of these courses, a portfolio must be submitted to the TDPT Program Director. Click here for more information.
