In high schools, colleges and universities, professional sports programs, corporate
and industrial sites, and sports medicine clinics, athletic trainers are managing
patients' injuries and medical conditions. The athletic trainer specializes in injury
prevention and evaluation, as well as the management of rehabilitation programs in
physically active people.
The curriculum of the Athletic Training program was developed based on guidelines
established by the Education Council of the National Athletic Trainers’ Association. Towson University provides a combination of formal classroom instruction and clinical
experience to prepare students to apply their health care skills in cooperation with
medical and athletic personnel, coaches, parents, and others involved in physical
activity.
