ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY CLINICAL TRAINING PROGRAM UMREP offers a specialized clinical
internship training program for those who qualify. Entrance requirements for the internship
include an appropriate graduate degree or its equivalent in Biomedical or
Rehabilitation Engineering. Special
considerations can be made under the direction of the program director. The internship may be well-suited to those
interested in obtaining their ATP or RET but do not have adequate clinical
experience. The duration of the internship is one year
full time or if enrolled concurrently in an academic program, 5-6 terms of
half time. The internship includes
clinical service and laboratory training as well as extensive reading on a
broad range of assistive technologies and technology-related service in the
areas of mobility, seating and positioning, augmentative communication,
computer access, computer literacy and training, environment control,
manipulation aids, and other assistive technologies. Additionally, interns
are expected to obtain hands-on experience with the complete array of
specific rehabilitation technology systems and equipment available within the
UMREP. Students participate in all aspects of the UMREP service delivery
program ranging from technical lab work, to system set-up, to client
evaluation and training. Medical record and written documentation of client
history, visits, evaluation, and equipment and training recommendations are
also an important part of the clinical internship. For inquires regarding the clinical
internship, please email us at: |
