The University of Montana is proud to collaborate with Far Eastern University-Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation School of Physical Therapy and Rehab Essentials to bring a post professional Doctorate of Physical Therapy (tDPT) program to Philippines-based students. The University of Montana understands there is a discrepancy in cost of living and salaries in the PT profession internationally. Recognizing this, the University of Montana accommodates and provides access to an affordable pathway for physical therapists residing in the Philippines to acquire a DPT at a cost that is proportional to the market differential between the US and the Philippines.
The University of Montana post professional tDPT program, provides a critical career advancement pathway for therapists trained at foreign Universities. The innovative, world-class curriculum is taught by the best and brightest faculty. The contemporary 100% asynchronous online format engages you from virtually anywhere. You have 24/7 online access to your courses and assignments when you are ready from virtually anywhere. Courses can be viewed and reviewed anytime within the semester. Deadlines and key dates for assignments, quizzes and exams are easily found in the course dashboard to keep you on track.
Throughout this post-professional program you will gain advanced critical thinking and professional knowledge, to apply to the science and art of physical therapy. You will be empowered to move your career forward and be better prepared to become a leader in physical therapy. And all with a budget-friendly tuition.
This track is for foreign trained therapists looking to attain a DPT and to either meet license requirements or continue to practice in their native country. All courses taken through this program are graduate level courses. While the tDPT coursework will assist toward the fulfillment of the educational requirements toward US licensure, it does not guarantee a US license. All physical therapists seeking US PT licensure should follow all steps outlined by the FSBPT
Rehab Essentials and FEU-NRMF have partnered with the University of Montana to offer a budget-friendly post professional Doctor of Physical Therapy (tDPT) degree program that allows internationally licensed working professionals to complete the degree on their terms, online and on their time. Each course within the curriculum is designed to advance critical thinking to the doctorate level while building on clinical skills. Plus, the University of Montana is institutionally accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU).
