    Prerequisite: Admission to DPT Program Course Description: This course begins with foundational concepts in vertebrate embryology and development. Upon that foundation and in-depth regional study of the human body emphasizing musculoskeletal, neuromuscular and cardiopulmonary systems plus gross surface anatomy features is methodically explored. Students will examine strucutral interrelationships as a basis for normal function, and will engage in directed laboratory experiences with cadaver dissection, skeletal materials and models plus other proven learning activities such as student presentations of clinical problems illustrating anatomincal principles, and student presentations of cadaver pro-sections. 7.000 Credit Hours 8.000 Lecture hours 9.000 Lab hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Lecture/Supervised Lab/Clinic Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department

    Prerequisite: Admission to DPT program. Course Description: Medical Terminology is specifically designed to meet the needs of students in medical, biological, and health-related programs and provids them with a working knowledge of medical vocabulary using a systems approach. This course provides a study of words sthat pertain to body systems, anatomic structures, medical processes and procedures, and a variety of diseases. Medical terminology is a specialized language for the health care team so they may communicate in a concise and accurate way. 1.000 Credit Hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Asynchronous Instruction Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department

    Prerequisites: Admission to DPT Program Course Description: An in depth study of clinical histology particularly as it relates to the organs of the musculoskeletal, neural, integumentary and cardiopulmonary systems. Their structural interrelationships, as a basis for normal and pathological conditions, and thoroughly explored. Emphasis is placed on connective tissue and muscular structures and their responses to stress and inflammation. Instructional sessions will also itetrate rationale of treatment of pathological conditions specific to connective tissue changes. 3.000 Credit Hours 4.500 Lecture hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Lecture Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department

    Prerequisite: Successful completion of Semester I courses. This course provides the physiological knowledge base for understanding homeostatic mechanisms and interaction of organ systems required of every physical therapist. Mechanisms of control and regulation of cardiopulmonary function, pain, edema, inflammation, stress, immobility, lymphatic function, temperature regulation, gastrointestional functions, endocrineand autonomic nervous styem effects are emphasized. A basic introduction into the principles of pharmacology is is also provided. Each physiological process is studied wit particular emphasis on changes that occur secondary to variables such as injury, disease, age, environment, and gender. This course is first in a series of two clinical physiology courses in the curriculum. 4.000 Credit Hours 4.000 Lecture hours 2.000 Lab hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Lecture, Lecture/Supervised Lab/Clinic Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department

    This course is designed to assist the student to understand the physiological processes that underlie the role and effects of exercise as it relates to health, pathology, culture, age, gender, and restoration of function. Emphasis is placed on muscle cell physiology, cardiovascular responses, and oxygen transport in response to changes in metabolic demand, exercise training, and detraining. Principles of therapeutic exercise, using a case study and lab approach, will provide students with foundational knowledge for safe implementation of a variety of general exercise programs. 4.000 Credit Hours 2.000 Lecture hours 4.000 Lab hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Lecture/Supervised Lab/Clinic Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department

    Prerequisites: Successful completion of Semester I courses. A detailed study of central and peripheral nervous system of the human, including phylogeny, developmental anatomy, miciroanatomy, gross anatomical consideration, and internal structures and organization. The focus will be on structures and relationships underlying behavior, particularly perception, intellect and motor control. Selected pathological conditions will be considered to illustrate th relationship between structure and behavior, both normal to normal and pathological nervous system function and dysfunction will be considered. Directed laboratory experiences using cadaveric tissue, images of sectioned tissue, amd models will be included. 4.000 Credit Hours 4.000 Lecture hours 0.000 Lab hours 0.000 Other hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Lecture/Supervised Lab/Clinic Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department

    The focus of this course is on detailed study of the integrated functions of the human nervous system emphasizing mechanisms of motor and sensory activity and modulation. Principles of generation and conduction of nerve impulse are thoroughly discovered. Then by integrating the neuroanatomy and neurophysiology information, the neurological basis of normal movements are discussed. Motor control theories, concepts of motor learning, and associated intervention plans are fully covered. The development and maintenance of postural control, muscle tone and reflexes in relation to normal and pathological neural functions and dysfunction are presented. The neurophysiologic bases underlying several treatment techniques are explored. The clinical disorders of neuromuscular systems are discussed. 3.000 Credit Hours 2.000 Lecture hours 2.000 Lab hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Lecture, Lecture/Supervised Lab/Clinic Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department

    This course explores the psychosocial concepts, theories, and ethical principles essential to understanding reactions of patients, family, and therapists to disabling disorders and catastrophic illness. Through reading assignements, review of video/movies and "active" class discussion, students are able to explore "identity" and the other essential counstructs of "self" as they relate to 'heathly' human development across the lifespan. As students recognize their own belief systems, essential psychosocial elements of 'self' are then applied to understanding differences and similarities in values, moral and ethical beliefs of various groups of people across age, race, culture, sexual orientation, and socioeconomic status. More specifically attitudes toward persons with disability are discussed with respect to their influence on the physical, psychosocial, and cultural aspects of an individual's growth and development. Finally the role of physical therapists, service professions, agencies, and advocacy groups infacilitating adjustment to disability are discussed. 4.000 Credit Hours 4.000 Lecture hours Levels: Graduate Semester Schedule Types: Lecture Allied Health Sciences College Physical Therapy Department
