Nurturing physical therapists who support the community through team medical care

The job of a physical therapist is to support the recovery and maintenance of motor functions lost due to illness, injury, or disability. In response to the social background of an aging population and the spread of health consciousness, the scope of work is expanding to a wide range of fields such as medicine, nursing care, and sports, and more advanced knowledge and skills are required. Students will acquire broad education and advanced specialized knowledge, as well as learn about their role in medical team work. With the generous support of teachers with extensive clinical and educational experience, we will train physical therapists who are considerate of the feelings and environment of others.
