Practitioner Faculty
Our practitioner faculty bring timely experience to the classroom every day, supplementing their lectures with practical advice. Discover real-world insights from faculty who currently practice physical therapy, and who are deeply connected to the field beyond a theoretical and academic perspective. At the intersection of two worlds, our practitioner faculty helps guide your first steps into the world of physical therapy practice, paving the way for a more gentle and gradual transition from student to professional.
