For Students
At University Physical Therapy, we value the contributions of students at various stages of their academic preparation to become physical therapists. Our faculty clinicians bring coursework and evidence alive for our students and patients in clinic through quality patient care. Whether you are a student interested in volunteering or observing in one of our clinics or a recent graduate interested in completing one of our residency or fellowship programs, UPT provides a unique learning experience.
