physical therapy

Does anyone know what degree you need to become a physical therapist?

Depends. I know in New York you need you Bachelors degree, but now the one university is making it a PhD program.

They want to do that here in texas too :(


What kind of degree would I need? Science? Kinosology (sp)?

It's a BS in physical therapy. But here it's a doctorate in that. Most schools have that specific of a degree.

i go to temple university and here you first need a BS, in either kinesiology or biology. I am working on my biology degree, which is a four year course and after that you go into the physical therapy program for two more years to get your degree.
