Program Details

This degree was designed to equip students with advanced knowledge and practical experience to feel confident as they transition into a residency and, later, a career in orthotics and prosthetics.

From patient care to research methods and clinic management, the program is comprehensive in preparing students for success. You’ll learn how to create treatment plans for various parts of the body and understand patients’ individual needs. As part of CSP’s complete approach to orthotics and prosthetics, students will also build leadership skills and understand patient care ethics.

CSP students learn from experienced faculty who are currently practicing in the orthotics and prosthetics field. Gain valuable insight from those who are treating patients on a daily basis – not just what’s in your textbook.

Students are required to relocate to Minnesota for the lab portion of the program but can live anywhere during the rest of their time at CSP. The program’s flexible delivery allows many students to work full-time in orthotics and prosthetics as technicians, administrators, assistants, and more.

This program is a collaboration between CSP and Century College.
