This course will provide an overview of procedures and protocols designed to reduce the risk of injury and illness, plus enrich patient wellness and performance. Appropriate application of prophylactic, restrictive, and assistive devices will be emphasized. Additional topics covered in the course include: pre-participation physical examination, wellness strategies, injury prevention programs, monitoring environmental conditions, fluid and nutritional recommendations, physiological monitoring systems, biometrics, and population health.
This course emphasizes principles and techniques for recognition and management of potentially emergent life-threatening and non-life-threatening urgent medical situations. These include but are not limited to: cardiac compromise, respiratory compromise, environmental conditions, cervical spine compromise, traumatic brain injury, hemorrhage, fractures, dislocations, anaphylaxis, exertional sickling, rhabdomyolysis, hyponatremia, diabetes, drug overdose, wounds, testicular injury and musculoskeletal injury. At the completion of the course students will be eligible for certification in CPR Professional Rescuer/AED and First Aid by the American Red Cross.

This course emphasizes the theory of pain management and biomechanical assessment of patients of all levels of physical activity to implement appropriate, evidence-based, interventions aimed at improving and enhancing function throughout a performance spectrum. Emphasis is placed on concepts of patient-centered plan of care that integrates physical means and therapeutic exercises to enable the patient to prevent or remediate impairments of body functions and structures, enhance activities and participation, reduce risk of injury, optimize health, and enhance movement and well-being.
This course emphasizes the application of therapeutic exercises and physical agents for patients of all levels of physical activity to implement appropriate, evidence-based, interventions aimed at improving and enhancing performance. Emphasis is placed on a patient-centered plan of care the integrates physical means and therapeutic exercises to enable the patient to prevent or remediate impairments of body functions and structures, enhance activities and participation, reduce risk of injuries, optimize health, and enhance movement and well-being.
This course serves as a foundation to general pharmacology, focusing on categories of medications and their interaction with body systems. At the completion of this course, students will be able to integrate pathophysiological principles of pharmacology and patient assessment finds to formulate an impression and implement a pharmacologic management plan.
This course is designed to provide an understanding of the theory and application of psychology of sport, injury, and rehabilitation. Topics covered include emotion, motivation, mental skills training and use, psychological antecedents of injury, psychology of injury and rehabilitation, career transition and termination, disabilities, rehabilitation/exercise adherence, eating disorders, alcohol and drug/substance abuse, gender and cultural diversity, and research methods related to the psychology of sport, injury, and rehabilitation.

MSAT 717Healthcare Management and Quality Improvement
This course prepares students for aspects of healthcare management and leadership including legal and risk considerations, budgeting, staffing and hiring practices, medical insurance, and healthcare policy. Additionally, students will learn about health informatics and quality improvement principles in order to improve patient outcomes.
This supervised educational field experience at an affiliated clinical site, takes place concurrently with other required graduate coursework. Integrated clinical experience is designed to progress the student toward autonomous patient- and client-care practice. The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the practice of athletic training and develop competency in the management of emergent and urgent care.
This course incorporates supervised educational experience at affiliated clinical sites. Emphasis is placed on the athletic trainer’s role in working with patients and is designed to allow students to begin developing clinical proficiency in the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of lower extremity dysfunction. Students will also participate in sports medicine clinics to apply hands-on skills within an active patient population.
This supervised educational field experience at an affiliated site is designed to allow students full immersion in the clinical setting. This practice-intensive experience is intentionally designed to allow students to experience the totality of care provided by athletic trainers. Students will apply critical thinking along with hands-on skills to a patient population. An online component will be incorporated with this immersion rotation for students to share in their interprofessional connected learning experiences.
