3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: For PT Students This course provides an introduction to the profession of physical therapy and the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) core values. This course addresses awareness of self and the effect that individual beliefs, attitudes, and values have on clinical behavior. Emphasis is placed on professional behavior and communication skills. Concepts of teaching and learning theories will be presented. This course also addresses disability awareness. Portfolios are introduced as a reflective assessment tool.

2.00 Credits
Prerequisite: Take PHTH-500, For PT Students This course further emphasizes the Guide to Physical Therapist Practice, the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health Model (ICF) and disablement models. This course focuses on components and performance of the medical interview. Documentation models will be discussed as well as Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), the Functional Independence Measure (FIM), and cultural competence.

Prerequisite: PHYS 104, BIOL 102, BIOL 394, MATH 125; For PT Students Corequisite: PHTH 509L, PHTH 531, PHTH 500, BIOL 510, BIOL 511 Kinesiology is the study of human motion. This course is designed to analyze the principles of biomechanics, muscle and joint anatomy and function which interact to produce or limit normal motion. Kinesiology I will include biomechanics, mechanical properties of joints and muscles and analysis of the upper extremity, temporal mandibular joint (TMJ), cervical and thoracic spine. Analysis of the upper extremity, TMJ, cervical and thoracic spine will include the structure, function, mechanics, select pathomechanics and analysis of movement at each region.

Functional Neurophysiology is a lecture course that comprises a study of the physiological application of neuroanatomy to the analysis of normal and abnormal movement. It is designed to address the functional aspects of the nervous system and how they change in different neurological diseases with altered movements and behavior and to explore neuroscience issues important to the practice of physical rehabilitation.
