Description
During the second year of study, full-time clinical rotations provide the student with the opportunity to apply the theory and skills acquired in the didactic course work within the clinical setting. This 8-week rotation will focus on the examination and care of patients with lower extremity orthopaedic conditions. Student clinical performance will be determined using the OPA clinical evaluation tool. In addition, students will need to pass a proctored written exam at the end of the rotation that will test their knowledge relative to that rotation. As each rotation is independent of the others, the sequencing of rotations will vary among individual students and will be based mainly on availability.
