FACILITIES

The Athletic Training Education Program has outstanding facilities that house state-of-the-art equipment essential to the acquisition of clinical and academic skills. The ATEP recently expanded its' Competency Laboratory to include two General Skills Labs; a Modality Lab; a Therapeutic Rehabilitation Lab with a Biodex, Inc. Isokinetic Dynamometer; and an Individual Skills Practice Lab. Additionally, the Athletic Training Suite houses the offices of the ATEP Program Coordinator and the ATEP faculty to ensure easy access to the program faculty.

KSU ATEP also uses the two athletic training rooms on the Kent Campus. These facilities - one housed in the MACC and one housed in the Dix Stadium complex - provide students access to additional athletic training equipment and supplies. Five full-time certified athletic trainers and four ATEP faculty provide the clinical instruction for students in these facilities.

KSU ATEP uses affiliate sites to supplement on-campus experiences. Several high schools (Kent Roosevelt, Green, St. Vincent-St. Mary) provide additional sites for athletic training students within the program. Two clinics and their satellite sites - Akron General Medical Center and Summa Health Care Systems - provide clinical sites for our students. Each of these affiliate sites has a variety of athletic training equipment and supplies which provides the athletic training students the opportunity to experience several different professional venues prior to graduation.
