General Information
We have three athletic trainer positions
available for graduate assistantship status starting in 2012-13.
The positions anticipated are with the varsity programs in Baseball,
Men's Gymnastics, and Women's Volleyball. A teaching
assistantship may also be available with the undergraduate accredited
education program. All positions have direct mentor staff
in the same facility to help to provide guidance and nurture
independence.
Must be BOC certified or eligible to be
accepted, and must be eligible for Iowa license by August. GRE
scores should be 500 or above on Verbal and 600 or above on
Quantitative; and overall undergraduate GPA should be 3.00 or above to
be considered for admission to the Health and Human Physiology
Department where the Master of Arts degree in Exercise Science
(Athletic Training) is offered.
Other degree plans in other departments are options.
GRE scores for other graduate programs on campus vary and should be
obtained from the specific department of interest. All students
should have an interest in working with undergraduate students as
clinical instructors.
Send a resume with contact reference names and a note of
interest by e-mail to
danny-foster@uiowa.edu .
Review of candidates will begin immediately and
a decision to hire will be recommended when suitable candidates are
identified. The process of graduate school application should be
started as soon as possible after initial contact with our staff.
**Otherwise from year-to-year we usually anticipate having six academic year
graduate assistantship positions over a two year period; 10 and 12 month
contracts may be available. Our on-campus assistantships are with
varsity sports: baseball, men's basketball, men gymnastics,
women's rowing, men's & women's Track and Cross-country, and volleyball,
but only a few of these are open each year. All positions have direct
mentor staff to help to provide guidance and nurture independence.
A stipend, out-of-state tuition waiver, tuition scholarships, state
licensure fees, and health benefits make these positions an excellent
financial situation. In addition to these benefits, graduate
students will work alongside experienced clinicians and within a
coordinated sports medicine system of education, research, and service
associated with the University Hospitals & Clinics along with local CEU
opportunities. For the 2011 appointments, we had openings
in rowing and track which were offered in
April 2011. The men's basketball GA position was successfully
offered in December 2010. A Teaching Assestantship also was
offered in early January 2011. An additional assistantship for softball
was completed in July 2011.
Academic Programs on campus are varied and provide
both breadth and depth of experiences for potential athletic training
graduate students. In the department of Health and Human
Physiology we offer a program specifically designed for athletic
trainers. You can get more information about this program of study
by linking to it
here. The Program is listed under
Health and Human Physiology in the Graduate College and the MA program
in the department is listed as Exercise Science for application
purposes. Other academic programs within the department on campus
that may provide a breadth of background to clinically trained athletic
trainers are in Departments such as Health Studies, Leisure Studies, or
in other Colleges such as The College of Public Health and the College
of Business. |
