The program offers a blend of academic curriculum, hands-on projects, and real-world exposure through clinical education and interactions with professionals.
The Kinesiology & Physical Therapy program offers high school students an immersive pre-college experience focused on human movement and rehabilitation. Through a combination of lectures, hands-on lab work, and clinical education, students gain foundational knowledge of human anatomy, movement fundamentals, and exercise principles. They develop basic assessment skills such as range of motion measurements, endurance testing, gait analysis, and balance evaluation. Students also practice manual skills like palpation, manual muscle testing, sports taping, and soft tissue mobilization. The program explores diverse career paths within physical therapy, occupational therapy, athletic training, and kinesiology, providing insights into the requirements and job opportunities in these fields. Students may also have the opportunity to visit local physical therapy clinics and interact with professionals, gaining real-world exposure to the daily practices of the profession.
A typical day blends academic learning with hands-on activities, potentially including lab work, skill development, and excursions to local physical therapy clinics or organizations.
This program is ideal for high school students interested in science, healthcare, human anatomy, and exploring careers in physical therapy and related health professions.
