UNMC summer program for international physical therapy students goes virtual

In prior summers, this course was offered on-campus at UNMC but due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s course was offered as a three-week online summer program from July 12-30, 2021. More students were able to join this program from the comfort of their homes than had previously come to Omaha in years past. The 2021 course welcomed 24 SEED students from six different universities in China and Taiwan.
