About

Brian Bobier is the program director and an assistant professor for the Master of Athletic Training program at UCO. He received his Doctor of Athletic Training from A.T. Still University of Health Sciences at the Arizona School of Health Sciences (2022). He completed his Master of Education from the University of Houston (2004) and a Bachelor of Science from the University of Oklahoma (2001). He is a state-licensed and BOC-certified athletic trainer and has been for more than 20 years.  

Bobier has been in higher education for more than two years now. Before transitioning to higher education, his career was focused on providing clinical care in various patient settings. Most recently, he was an educator and athletic trainer for Okarche Public Schools (2018-21). He also has experience providing care in the secondary school setting in Phoenix, Arizona, and the OKC metro area. One area of contemporary expertise is working with the overhead athlete. Bobier has 15 seasons of college and professional baseball experience working with the Miami Marlins (2016-18), Texas Rangers (2003-06 and 2007-11), Kansas State University (2013-14), University of Texas (2007) and the University of Houston (2002) baseball teams. He enjoys working with patients who participate in overhead activities due to the complexity of the upper extremities, as these injuries keep him on his toes.

Bobier lives in Oklahoma City with his wife, Jill, and daughter, Madison. They have a dog, Bubbles, and a cat, Sox. Bobier and family are thrilled to be a part of the UCO community and look forward to serving students and the community!
