    About

    Utica College offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Health Studies, leading to a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree for qualified students who meet required continuation standards. This is considered a guaranteed freshman admission into the DPT program at Utica College; students accepted as freshmen (designated HSPT or HSP4) are guaranteed entry into the professional PT program pending successful completion of requirements.

    Students in both concentrations are taught using a range of methods by which health promotion can be achieved.  The program utilizes adventure programming (structured learning exercises characterized by perceived or real risk or challenge) and experiential education principles as the foundation for its curriculum.
