3DOCTOR OF PHYSICAL THERAPY (DPT) PROGRAMVisionThe Physical Therapy Department at Marquette University will be among the best educational programs in preparingPhysical Therapy graduates who excel in academics, leadership, clinical practice, and service to others.MissionDepartment of Physical Therapy MissionThe mission of the Department is to prepare future health care practitioners and researchers with an education rich inclinical experiences, community outreach, and research opportunities to develop leaders guided by the values of “CuraPersonalis.”Program MissionTo graduate entry-level physical therapist professionals who are ethical practitioners, knowledgeable of current practices,skillful in applying their knowledge, motivated to address the needs of the underserved community, and self-directedlifelong learners who will become leaders in their profession and community.Furthermore, in an effort to meet the current health care needs in under-served areas, the department is committed tosupporting programs of outreach that will enhance the enrollment and training of disadvantaged students and service todisadvantaged populations.Our primary goal is to graduate physical therapists that are recognized by consumers and other health care professionalsas general practitioners of choice to whom consumers have direct access for diagnosis of, interventions for, andprevention of impairments, functional limitations, and disabilities related to movement, function, and health.PhilosophyConsistent with the Ignatian practice of Examen which makes a Jesuit education unique, the Department of PhysicalTherapy aspires to transform students into critical thinkers who respect the dignity and worth of others, through theprocess of reflection and discernment.The teaching-learning process is recognized as a dynamic interaction of shared responsibility among the academicfaculty, clinical faculty, and students. The Department of Physical Therapy supports the educational view that studentslearn in a multitude of ways, necessitating a variety of learning experiences. These experiences are important for thedevelopment of a life-long autonomous learner who is self-motivated and self-directed. The departmental faculty are aresource and role model in the development of these traits by providing quality instruction, contributing to the generalbody of knowledge through an active research agenda, maintaining personal clinical competence including the operationof on-campus Physical Therapy clinic, demonstrating professionalism, respecting the dignity of others and advocacy forpatient and professional causes. It is the goal of the faculty to help students to become educated members of society,active members of their profession and role models for peers and future physical therapists.Expected Global Student OutcomesOne of the defining characteristics of a Marquette education is the focus on cura personalis – care of the whole person. Inthat vein, we expect that Graduates of the Doctor of Physical Therapy program will embody that characteristic. Graduatesof the Physical Therapy program will be able to:1. Demonstrate the skills necessary to practice autonomously within a direct access environment in essentialpractice areas as defined by the Guide for Physical Therapist Practice.2. Use testing and differential diagnosis to screen individuals in order to determine appropriateness for physicaltherapy services, and/or to determine the need for referral to other health professionals.3. Apply evidence-based decision making in planning patient care.4. Create or influence social and physical environments that promote better movement for all.References1.
