• Therapeutic science is a field of study emphasizing an enhanced understanding of the consequences for an individual related to health conditions, rather than a study of the health condition itself.
  • KU offers a Ph.D. in therapeutic science degree as an interdisciplinary program involving faculty across a variety of departments and schools at the University of Kansas. This program provides interdisciplinary training at a doctoral level, necessary to address a spectrum of issues related to health and disability.
  • This program is designed for motivated students with a research-focused interest in exploring the intersection of activities, disability, and quality of life that requires an integrated, interdisciplinary course of study that cannot be provided by existing programs.
