Our athletic training program specializes in the prevention, assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of injuries and illnesses. Athletic trainers are unique health care providers who work as part of a health care team to supply quality care in a variety of settings.
We offer a challenging curriculum and our dedicated faculty prepare students for rewarding careers in the athletic training profession and related fields. Athletic trainers are certified by the Board of Certification (BOC) and licensed in the state of Ohio by the Occupational Therapy, Physical Therapy, and Athletic Trainers’ Board. The Master of Science in Athletic Training program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE).
