ATHLETIC TRAINING EMPHASIS Athletic Trainers (ATs) are health care professionals who collaborate with physicians. The services provided by ATs comprise prevention, emergency care, clinical diagnosis, therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation of injuries and medical conditions. The Master of Science in Athletic Training (MS.AT) will begin in summer 2015 and will be a full-time, cohort-model program leading to a career as an athletic trainer. As a cohort-model program, admission into the MS.AT program
is highly competitive and limited. A 3+2 accelerated route for admission to the MS.AT allows the undergraduate Kinesiology major to apply to the MS.AT in the fall semester of their Junior year. If accepted, students would begin the MS.AT program at the conclusion of their junior year. Students accepted into the MS.AT will utilize credits from the graduate program as their area of emphasis and would receive their undergraduate degree in Kinesiology at the conclusion of their first year of the graduate program. Specific admission requirements, retention policy, program standards and program handbook can all be found on the MS.AT website. Students interested in this 3+2 program are strongly encouraged to meet with an academic advisor as soon as possible in order to meet the admission requirements of the graduate program.

Graduates from the kinesiology program will be given careful consideration along with other qualified applicants for admission to the program, which is the oldest, ongoing physical therapy education program in the United States. Prerequisites required by many Physician Assistant graduate programs are also utilized in this emphasis area.
