Athletic Training

<p>Hey everyone</p>

<p>One day I want to become an athletic trainer for a collegiate/professional sports organization. Sports Medicine is something Ive always been interested in, but now Ive realized that its somewhat of a narrow option as far as colleges go. Apparently only a small number of schools actually have an athletic training major. Is that the only way to go if you want to become an athletic trainer? What are some of the better schools if I want to go this route. I guess Im just new to this, and I cant find too much when I google and such. </p>

<p>Does anyone have any information on this that they can share with me? </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>i used to want to do that.......not anymore....change of heart i guess
i am now pursuing a carrer as a MD in a hospital and not in the sports field</p>

<p>I have a friend that wants to become a Sports Medicine doctor as well, and she chose to pursue biomedical engineering as her major, even though there is a school of kinesiology at our college (university of michigan).</p>
