AT 610AT Clinical Practicum III6
This course includes the practical application of clinical skills via formal clinical education. This course will follow an 8 week modular approach and will include an immersive clinical experiences at an approved clinical site. This immersive experience allows the athletic training student to experience the totality of care provided by an athletic trainer. Students will participate in the full-time day-to-day role of an athletic trainer. Students will meet with the AT Program Director and CEC to determine the focus and nature of this clinical education experience. Students spend approximately 320 hours working with a preceptor at the university’s facilities or an affiliated site. Of the 320 hours, students will spend approximately 40 hours with a preceptor at a general medical facility. Students at this portion of the rotation will interact with patients with “general medical conditions” and/or with patients with chronic illness and disabilities. The weekly student contact expectation is approximately 40 hours.

Study of pharmacologic applications for injury/illness to athletes and the physically active. Includes indications, contraindications, interactions of medications, and relevant governing regulations to medications.
AT 620Clinical Pathology and Differential Diagnosis2
This course explores clinical pathology and pathophysiology associated with systemic disease. Students will focus on the use of evidence-based practice concepts to generate a complete differential diagnosis and clinical diagnosis. Students will focus on the use of patient-reported outcomes and informatics to track patient data related to care. Students will analyze these data and synthesize alterations to established plans of care or aid in preventative approaches to national health issues.
This course covers the study of evidence-based clinical procedures in athletic training. Students will select and discuss the best available evidence surrounding the following topics; 1) the selection and application of therapeutic exercise and modalities to treat a variety of musculoskeletal injuries (Part 2). Topics include: Electrical stimulation, Iontophoresis, Biofeedback, Laser and functional therapeutic exercise. Students spend 2 hours in lecture and 2 hours in lab.
AT 630Evidence Based Practice: Clinical Research I3
This course explores quantitative and qualitative research methodologies used in athletic training and evaluation of published research in the field. This is a writing enhanced (WE) course. WE courses require a substantial amount of writing as a way to help students learn course content, as well as to support the development of each student’s writing ability. Course grading will include assessments based on the demonstration of writing elements, such as a clear thesis, good organization, support or evidence for claims, proper grammar, and proofreading. Research methodologies are discussed including: with how to identify a research topic (PICO), how to perform a literature search and organize resources, and how to organize and write a literature comprehensive review of the literature. Students will then design a research project, generate and research proposal and submit the proposal for Institutional Review Board approval.
AT 635Evidence Based Practice: Clinical Research II3
This capstone course builds on and brings to fruition the work completed in AT 630 . Students will work in groups to complete their research projects. This includes, but it not limited to 1) recruitment of subjects, completion of all experimental methodology, collection and analysis of the data, and synthesis of results. The student groups will present their respective projects at the local, regional or national level as appropriate.
AT 640Healthcare Administration and Professional Responsibility2
