Overview
The program aims to offer courses of study that develop and enable the utilization of critical thinking and creativity to address professional practice and patient care issues. The program is intended to prepare students to become physical therapists that embrace evidence based physical therapy practice, meet the multifaceted health needs of patients, consumers, and society, and participate in professional and community service. To fulfill this mission, we create a stimulating and collaborative environment that promotes education, research, service, and leadership. It includes independent learning and research to a level that demands an integrated and critical approach to physiotherapy and other healthcare related disciplines.
Upon successful completion of their program, graduates from our undergraduate Physiotherapy program will be able to:
• think critically and analyze real problems
• find, evaluate, and use resources
• work collaboratively
• demonstrate versatility
• communicate effectively
• function well in a global community
• continue learning after graduation
