You must have completed approximately 2/3 of the Life and Physical Science prerequisites by the end of the Fall Quarter/Semester in which you apply. The remainder of the Behavioral, Life and Physical Science prerequisites must be completed during the Winter and Spring Quarter/Semesters following submission of your application. The OU DPT program begins at the start of OU’s summer term and all prerequisites must be completed before the start of classes. ?All prerequisite courses must be equivalent to the course descriptions below. Those courses marked with an asterisk (*) must be taken at a 4-year institution. ?Combined anatomy and physiology courses Two courses of combined anatomy and physiology may be used to meet both the anatomy and the physiology prerequisite requirements provided the content in the combined anatomy and physiology courses is similar to the content of the individual anatomy and physiology courses described below. These combined anatomy and physiology courses must include a laboratory component. ?Science course for non-science majors Science courses for non-science majors are not acceptable to meet the prerequisite requirements. 1.

Developmental/Child Psych: a. Requirement: One course. b. Content required: Basic principles of human development from the prenatal period through adolescence; Theory and literature on physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional development. c. OU course: PSY 2410 4. Psychology: a. Requirement: One additional course (excluding statistics). b. This course may not duplicate the Developmental Psychology requirement. 5. Introduction to Physics: a. Requirement: One year (3 quarters or 2 semesters); all courses must include a laboratory component as part of the course or as a separate course. b. Content required: Mechanics of solids and liquids, electricity, magnetism, heat, thermodynamics, waves, sound, light, relativity, quantum, atomic, nuclear physics; all courses must include a laboratory component as part of the course or as a separate course. c. OU courses: PHYS 2001, 2002 6. Chemistry Principles: a.
