PO-2
2. Can measure and evaluate the human body on the basis of physical structure.
PO-3
3. Can determine the conditions that cause functional impairment, the extent of functional impairment and the effects of people on their lives.
PO-4
4. Takes an active role in consultation, patient follow-up and treatment processes in growth and developmental disorders.
PO-5
5. Takes an active role in consultation, patient follow-up and treatment of chronic progressive diseases (cancer, muscular diseases, nervous system diseases, metabolic diseases), reducing the effects of the disease (pain, functional impairment).
PO-6

PO-10
10. To make it possible to evaluate, develop and improve public health.
PO-11
11. They can take an active role in project development and the related centers for the treatment of persons with disabilities, rehabilitation center, professional rehabilitation center establishment.
