Find Unity in Purpose and Joy in Service

From the moment you arrive at 麻豆社 Fox, you’ll be part of a family that shares a deep compassion for individuals and a desire to improve their lives. Learning together and serving people in the local community clinic and on service trips abroad make 麻豆社 Fox unique.

Be Part of a Caring Family

The strength of our community lies not only in the diverse interests and talents we bring to the table, but also in how we share. Everyone in your 44-student cohort will share resources, notes and insights, and you’ll be surrounded by people who encourage you, bring out your best work and help you succeed. You’ll also bond with your classmates over bracket-style games, faculty-hosted dinners, student-prepared breakfast gatherings and special events.

The depth of connection you experience in your cohort will extend to your professors, all of whom exemplify the university’s Be Known promise. They don’t have office hours; they have an open-door policy instead. Need to talk? Come by, call, text or FaceTime your professors. They’re always available, and they'll quickly become mentors, friends and colleagues.

Put the Patient First

Service lies at the core of our program, and it isn’t just about offering our students opportunities to put their training in motion. A spirit of service inspires us to prioritize patient needs over administrative structures, and it informs our research within each cohort, our community and the DPT industry as a whole.

One of the questions we often ask is, "If we know it to be true, then why aren't we doing it?" At 麻豆社 Fox, hearts that seek to serve and physical therapists who find joy in rehabilitating patients come together to improve the health of our local and global communities.

Physical Therapy students serving the people in Uganda

Physical Therapy in Africa

Each year, a group of professors and third-year DPT students travel to Africa. This is an incredible opportunity to put your training into practice in schools, remote towns, orphanages and clinics. Patients’ lives are transformed through therapy, and for the university, it’s one of the central ways we can show the love of Christ.

These long-standing relationships with clinics in Africa are a cornerstone of our service, and each time we go, our intent is to leave a part of us behind.
