Clinical Education
A large component of the ATEP is clinical education. Clinical education refers to the application of knowledge and skills, learned in the classroom and laboratory settings, to actual practice on patients under the supervision of a clinical instructor. Students are required to complete 5 clinical rotations, ranging between 150-200 hours per semester. Additionally, the ATEP includes two practicum courses (25 clinical hours each) and one field experience course (200 clinical hours).
