Physical Therapists with the DPT degree will be practitioners of choice to whom public will have direct access for the diagnosis of, interventions for, and prevention of impairments, activity limitations, participation restrictions, and environmental barriers related to movement, function, and health.
This degree program include foundational science courses, such as anatomy, physiology, histology, exercise physiology, neuroscience, biomechanics, pharmacology, pathology, and radiology / imaging, along with behavioral science courses, such as evidence-based practice and clinical reasoning. In this degree program the students also study the clinically-based courses include medical screening, examination tests and measures, diagnostic process, therapeutic interventions, outcomes assessment, and practice management. The DPT degree is quite different from the four years BS, PT degree in terms of curriculum, duration of study and scope of clinical practice. The DPT degree also fulfills the international requirements for physical therapy education, so the DPT graduates could get equivalency easily abroad.
DPT 5 years programme provide a novel learning experience that makes students acquire skills necessary to learn the required material in university but also to become life long learner and problem solver.
The programme is very practical with patients coming to labs to allow students to practice and learn from supervisor and each other.
A well-equipped museum full of models of different structures / organs and different charts. It make the students to understand the structure of human body.
A well-equipped lab having all assessment and treatment modalities for Neuro, Muscular skeletal and cardio – palmary rehabilitation.
It enables the students to learn:
