Doctoral PT program approved for Denton

The Texas Woman’s Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) program received approval for an additional program to be housed on the Denton campus from the Commission on Accreditation in Physical Therapy Education (CAPTE). The School of PT now has DPT programs on all three TWU campuses: Denton, Dallas and Houston. 

The first Denton DPT cohort arriving on campus will coincide with the opening of the Texas Woman’s health sciences center, which is scheduled for completion in summer 2025. It will serve students in the health science fields — such as physical therapy, nursing and occupational therapy — with a special emphasis on preparing students to serve in rural settings.
