 Prerequisite Courses

Physical Therapy

 Physical therapy offers a challenging career
for men and women who are interested in scien-
tific and medical fields and who like to work
with people. It requires knowledge in biological,
physical and behavioral sciences such as psy-
chology, gross and applied anatomy, physiolo-
gy, and pathology. It utilizes this knowledge in
the application of the therapeutic properties of
exercise, heat, cold, electricity, ultrasound, and
massage. The physical therapist works closely
with the physician, occupational therapist,
nurse, speech therapist, psychologist, and other
members of the health team as they combine
their skills and knowledge for the welfare of the
patient.
 To be eligible to work as a physical therapist
in Florida, a person must be licensed under the
provisions of the Physical Therapy Practice Act,
Florida Statutes, Chapter 486. State licensure for
physical therapists is administered under the
state of Florida's Board of Physical Therapy.
Examinations for licensure under this act cur-
rently are given three times annually.
 The Bachelor of Health Science in Physical
Therapy is awarded upon satisfactory comple-
tion of the course requirements in the physical
therapy curriculum. This curriculum is accredit-
ed by the American Physical Therapy Associa-
tion. As a part of the academic requirements,
students must successfully complete 22 weeks
of field experience in facilities approved by the
faculty of the Department of Physical Therapy.

Lower Division Course Sequence:
 The suggested course sequence permits a
student interested in Physical Therapy to fulfill
the university-wide General Education require-
ments.
