The top-ranked Regis University Physical Therapy Program has earned a full, 10-year reaccreditation.

 

The Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE) noted Regis’ program is:

  • Meeting its mission as evidenced by a strong commitment of its nationally-recognized faculty and staff to the success of the students and their outcomes; and
  • The performance of the program graduates includes licensure exam pass rate, graduation rate, and employment rate.

Regis’ Doctor of Physical Therapy program, ranked 25th in the nation by US News and World Report, focuses on leadership, professional, and clinical skill development while gaining an appreciation of health disparities and social determinants of health. The evidence-based curriculum explores motor control and movement theory as foundation principles of physical therapy education and includes 38 weeks of clinical experience.

The Physical Therapy Program, which celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2020, has over 1,500 graduates. It is one of five programs in the School of Physical Therapy, led by Dean Mark Reinking.
