In US, Master's in Physical Therapy is transitioning to the Doctorate level and by 2020 every university will be switched to DPT. With the DPT curriculum, one must have a Bachelor's degree in order to apply to the Program. After that, it's 3 years worth of DPT curriculum, making the entire Physical Therapy Program 7 years long. With the DPT, depending on the university, but in general you would have 9 semesters (fall, spring, summer x 3 years) worth of classes with internships starting after the first 3 semesters. Usually programs offer 4 internships, first one 4 weeks, the next three 6 to 8 weeks long. But you would have to go on the particular school website to find out more about that particular program. I am studying at the University of Oklahoma so I could tell you all about that if you are interested.
