This course is designed to further develop physical therapy students within clinical practice settings, and allow students the opportunity to have more advanced 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 Director of Clinical Education (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.
