What does the clinical field experience at Mount Union involve?
The clinical field experience provides a hands-on opportunity for students to develop specific professional competencies recommended by the NATA Education Council. Once admitted into the ATEP, students begin the process of completing between four and six semesters of clinical field experiences. The clinical field experiences include assignments with upper extremity, lower extremity and equipment intensive sports at Mount Union in addition to completing an assignment observing the practice of one or more physicians. Students are also provided with valuable experiences gained at off-campus affiliated high schools and/or with the Cleveland Browns NFL Organization.
