Jody Eckert, PT, DPT, EdD
Board Certified Clinical Specialist in Orthopaedics, Director of Doctoral 物理治疗 Program, Associate Professor of 物理治疗
I've served as faculty in the University of Mary DPT program since 2007. In fall 2021, I transitioned from the DCE role into the role of program director. I'm from Bismarck originally and my husband, 罗伯, and I feel blessed to be raising our two children (Emerson and Bobby) here in this community. 最初, I got my BA in Exercise Science from Concordia College in 2001 and then worked my way through a master's degree in PT and then two doctorates in PT and 教育al leadership. 在我空闲的时候, I love spending time with my family outside skiing, 徒步旅行, and going on walks together. I also enjoy running, cycling, and reading. I'm an avid sports fan of any sport my kids are currently playing.
