--Previous Message-- : Hello. I'm a student that is graduating in May : with a BS in Athletic Training. I have : posted here before only to get minimal : responses to my questions, but I'll take : another shot. My question is for those ATCs : who have gone to grad school- Do you find : that getting a masters in athletic training : as opposed to ex phys, or kines, or : nutrition has been of more benefit to you? : Or do you believe that any of these are good : options? And if so, I have had some trouble : finding schools with graduate programs that : seem to work with getting ATC experience and : your education. I was wondering if anyone : has any ideas about how to go about talking : to these programs about grad assistantships : and working with your education wants/needs. : Thanks : : If you're interested in pursuing a Master's Degree while continuing to obtain valuable athletic training experience, I would suggest applying for Grad. Asst. position at a school that has offers a Master's in Kines. I would suggest Midwestern State in Wichita Falls, Tx. The job posting is on the NATA website. Check them out. They have a great Kines. Dept. as well as a wonderful athletic training staff.
