The Athletic Training program at LSU is a limited admissions program designed to prepare students for a successful career as a highly qualified health care professional. Upon completion of the three-year Professional Phase (clinical component) students are educated and experienced in the management of health care problems associated with the physically active. If selected to the Professional Phase, students must successfully complete required criteria set forth by the School of Kinesiology’s Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training, as well as meet established criteria to progress and graduate from the program. Successful completion of this program qualifies students to take the athletic training profession's Board of Certification (www.bocatc.org) Credentialing Examination to become a certified athletic trainer (ATC), as well as all relevant state practice requirements. LSU’s Bachelor of Science in Athletic Training is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE). Graduates from our program establish successful careers as athletic trainers in secondary schools, colleges and universities, professional sports programs, sports medicine clinics, physician clinics, and other athletic health care settings. Interested students should contact our program faculty for additional information on the program and careers in athletic training.
