Mission & Vision Statement

The Department is dedicated to the academic and clinical education of individuals who: are committed to meeting the current and future needs of physical therapy clinical practice, education, and research; are sensitive to unique cultural and societal environments within the health care delivery systems; and will function as clinical problem solvers in a multiplicity of settings in which physical therapists practice. Implicit in the Program's curriculum is the development of evaluative skills, therapeutic program planning and treatment implementation, the teaching-learning process, leadership and group dynamics, as well as management and research. Graduates will be prepared to not only perform their professional role in patient care, but also to provide leadership for the profession, contribute to the growth of the profession, and contribute to the health care needs of society.
