Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) Program

Welcome

The application period for June 2008 enrollment will open in September 2007.

The Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) is an exciting, contemporary degree that is currently being developed at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee offered in two tracks, an entry level DPT and transitional DPT. The entry level DPT (e-DPT) is designed for those students who are not yet licensed, but want to become physical therapists. The UWS Doctor of Physical Therapy at The University of Wisconsin Milwaukee has been granted Candidate for Accreditation status by the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education of the American Physical Therapy Association. The transitional DPT (t-DPT) is designed for those students who are licensed to practice P.T. in the U.S. with a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree, but who are seeking higher education in clinical physical therapy.
