DPT 6600 INTEGRATED CLINICAL EXPERIENCE I

This course is designed to introduce physical therapy students to clinical practice settings, and allow students the opportunity to have early didactic knowledge reinforced through clinical education. Through this course, the first year DPT student spends ten, 4-hour sessions, in a clinical environment under the direct supervision of a licensed physical therapist. Students will participate in 4 debriefing/discussion sessions throughout the semester with the DCE and core faculty members. This experience is designed to help students become socialized to the clinical environment, and to integrate knowledge, practical skills, and professional behaviors learned in the classroom.
