Congratulations to the Andrews Institute and Baptist Health Care Master of Science in Athletic Training Class of 2026! UWF MSAT UWF Usha Kundu, MD College of Health UWF Movement Sciences & Health Andrews Institute for Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine

The Andrews Institute and Baptist Health Care MSAT Program closed out the spring semester with an end-of-year celebration. It was bitter sweet because we said “see you later” to the 2nd year students as they continue on their professional journey and walk the stage Saturday evening and graduate. We look forward to the 1st year students being promoted to 2nd year students and welcoming the new cohort in June.

Some of best preceptors an athletic training student could ask for.

Today six of the AIBHC MSAT students were awarded with their scholarship check by the Andrews Insititute and Baptist Health Care. This ongoing partnership between UWF MSAT, Andrews Institute for Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine and Baptist Health Care provides students with didactic, clinical, and financial support in order for them to pursue their calling as an athletic trainer.

This week the AIBHC MSAT program has been a program divided. Our PD, Dr. Smith (‘02 graduate of IU) and our CEC, Dr. Burton (‘10 graduate of the U) have been at odds on who will win the natty. That question will be answered Monday night. UWF MSAT UWF Usha Kundu, MD College of Health Andrews Institute for Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine UWF Movement Sciences & Health
