Clinical Education Plan

The clinical education component of the UM ATEP is designed to provide “real life” learning experiences for students following classroom and laboratory competence. The clinical experiences are encompassed within four educational courses totaling 14 credit hours (HHP 242, 334, 340, 341, 411, 412). Within each course, students are assigned to supervising clinical instructors (CI) or approved clinical instructors (ACI) on the campus of the University of Montana as well as to those working at off-campus affiliated sites. Students are assigned multiple week rotations providing a wide range of upper extremity, lower extremity, general medical conditions, and equipment intensive hours. Students will have opportunities to receive experience in high-risk and low-risk sports, as well as individual and team activities. Students will also experience athletic practices and competitive events in a variety of men and women’s sports.
