Husson
College Physical Therapy
program is proud to announce the New 3+3 DPT.
The first DPT class entered the program in Fall 2004. Our last class
to graduate with a Master of Science in Physical Therapy will be in
2008.
Study during the first three years of the program is in the areas of
the humanities and sciences. The fourth year of study is designed to
provide a broad comprehensive base in specific areas of health related
knowledge and concepts. After the successful completion of the first
four years, Physical Therapy students are awarded a Baccalaureate degree
in Kinesiology. During the fifth and sixth years, the focus is on professional
studies, research and clinical practice. While a large percentage of
our students complete their clinical placement in New England, a number
of students have been given the opportunity to expand their educational
experience in States and Provinces such as: Wisconsin,
Florida, Ontario and Canadian Maritimes, North and South Carolina, Utah
and Georgia. (For all Clinical Education information, you may contact
Karen Morren, Academic Coordinator of Clinical Education, directly through
her e-mail address: morrenk@husson.edu).
