Welcome!

We invite you to explore the educational, clinical, research and community service opportunities available in the Doctor of Physical Therapy Program at Emory University, located on the main Emory Campus in the heart of Atlanta. A dedicated community of students, faculty, staff and clinical affiliates contribute to the success of our program. Our goal is to create an environment that nurtures inquisitiveness, knowledge, expertise and professionalism in our students and positions them to be leaders of the physical therapy profession.
