I second Azimuthal... but off the top: Northwestern DPT/PhD Engineering, University of Delaware DPT/PhD Biomechanics and Temple DPT/PhD Neuromotor Control.

If you want to do this, then make sure to see that tuition is dramatically reduced or waved by doing the double degree very similar to MD/PhD.

Some schools offer them but nobody does them really because the clinical degree price tag isn't waved. Theyre really slapping themselves in the face with that.
