Rationale for the Program  \na. Institutional Rationale (Alignment with Institutional Mission and Strengths)  \n􀁸 Why is the institution proposing this program?  \nISU athletic training program has been a pioneer in athletic training education, typically forging the direction for practice, research, and educational endeavors. Changes in the healthcare system, practitioner needs and direction of the National Athletic Trainers'Association Executive Council on Education (NATA-ECE) necessitates that we review our direction with AT education. The NATA-ECE has provided support for increasing the entrylevel athletic training education to a master degree, which subsequently elevates postprofessional education to a clinical doctorate, with the intention of eventually phasing out the undergraduate entry-level education option. Currently 2 clinical doctorates in Athletic Training (DAT) programs exist in the United States. ISU would like to be one of the first DAT post-professional programs in order to create a longitudinal history thereby increasing name recognition to recruit top level students.  \nThe interprofessional nature of the College precipitates collaboration among departments for research and use of facilities, which is currently occurring. We anticipate the interprofessional collaborations will continue through the transition to the DAT which include the IU Medical School, Lugar and the Rural Health Innovation Collaborative (RHIC)  \nThe DAT aligns with the mission of the institution through continued research, community and public service through curricula that integrates clinical interprofessional experiences in preparing students for employment in healthcare that matches future trends in employment needs ([http://irt2.indstate.edu/ir/index.cfm/sp/mission/index](http://irt2.indstate.edu/ir/index.cfm/sp/mission/index)) .  \n􀁸 How is it consistent with the mission of the institution?  \nAcademic program offerings at ISU are based upon our institutional mission, state and national workforce needs, student interest, and faculty support. Several potential new programs have undergone a rigorous review prior to initial development. Since the creation of the new College of Nursing, Health, and Human Services in 2008, and the Department of Applied Medicine and Rehabilitation in 2010, the synergy to create a health science college  \nthat offers an array of health occupations has materialized. The priority is to support programs that focus on the health care needs of rural and underserved communities. We currently orchestrate combined resources of several community constituents to improve access for rural and underserved populations, provide progressive evidence based patient care, encourage collaborative education of students from various disciplines, and  \ndisseminate continuing education of practicing health care professionals.  \n􀁸 How does this program fit into the institution’s strategic and/or academic plan?  \nIn 2008, numerous programs were identified in a feasibility study by the Indiana University Bowen Research Center that would likely meet workforce needs. Based on the mission of the new College, Indiana workforce development needs, faculty talent, and student interest, the curricular process was initiated.
