Athletic Training Clinical Experience

The College of Education’s M.S.A.T. students engage in hands-on experience within the University of Idaho and externally within the athletic training profession across the nation. Students will complete clinical immersive experiences during each Fall and Spring semester, that are tailored to the goals of each student. 

Faculty members and students serve the university community by offering services in the Integrated Sports Medicine and Rehabilitative Therapy (ISMaRT) Clinic.

Clinical affiliate sites around the country offer M.S.A.T. students the opportunity to pursue clinical experience in line with their unique career aspirations. The map below is a sampling of sites that maintain clinical affiliation status with the UI M.S.A.T. program. 

Students have an opportunity to build new affiliations with the help of the clinical education coordinator. The list of potential experiences may grow each year. If you have questions about the clinical experiences within the M.S.A.T. program at the University of Idaho, please contact clinical education coordinator, Samantha Hughes, D.A.T.

Students will be responsible for travel and housing at their assigned clinical immersive experience.  Clinical sites may require documentation beyond Programmatic requirements (vaccinations, background checks, volunteer paperwork, etc.) It is the student’s responsibility to monetarily cover and complete all additional documentation, following the timeline set by the clinical site. Failure to complete additional documentation may require a change in assigned clinical site. opportunities to complete clinical immersive experiences.

Clinical experience schedules will be set by the assigned preceptor and may be subject to change with short notice. Employment above academic and clinical experience commitments is very difficult. If a student does pursue outside employment, it must not interfere with their assigned academic or clinical responsibilities.
