Doctoral Stream Rehab Programs
Is there a doctoral stream rehab program for Physical Therapists at the University of Toronto?
Yes, there are MSc and PhD programs in the Rehabilitation Sciences Institute. Students with a BScPT or MScPT may be eligible for consideration to this program. Alternatively, there are many other graduate programs available at U of T.
Why would a Physical Therapist want an MSc or PhD degree?
A PhD degree is required for researchers and educators in Physical Therapy, and increasingly an MSc is required for advanced consultant and management positions. Graduate study provides an opportunity to study in an area of interest in-depth and to contribute to the development of knowledge, theory knowledge and science in that area. For further information, contact the Rehabilitation Sciences Institute.
