The mission and purpose of William Carey’s Doctor of Physical Therapy Program is to create a challenging and caring academic community that prepares students to become compassionate and competent entry-level physical therapists who value excellence in practice, service to low-resource populations, and engagement in global health and wellness.
At William Carey DPT, you will encounter knowledgeable professors, a caring and compassionate culture, and a passion to develop learners who will carry these characteristics to the patients and clients of our region. As a Christian institution and program, we honor the student’s God-given calling to the healing ministry of Jesus Christ, and value intellectual, emotional, and spiritual growth as highly as professional development.
Our faculty are American Board of Physical Therapy Specialist Certified in their respective practice areas, and most continue to provide patient care on a regular basis. We also enjoy a number of academically prepared faculty who guide the program in best practice educational strategies focused on active learning. Finally, our clinical instructors locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally provide supervision and oversight as our students journey from novice to expert clinicians during experiential learning.
Whether you are a current student, a prospective student, parent, or potential employer we think you’ll find a lot to like in our program. We invite you to visit our new College of Health Sciences facilities and consider making our program your choice!
