Summary
This Physiotherapy (Pre-registration) MSc is a two-year accelerated course, for people who already hold a degree in a science or behavioural science subject. It will build upon students' undergraduate training while enhancing research and critical thinking skills to enable students to excel at a postgraduate level.
On this course, students will learn to help people with a range of conditions including chronic heart disease, multiple sclerosis, cystic fibrosis and arthritis. Learning is hands-on, with teaching taking place in simulated environments including our physiotherapy lab featuring hospital beds, stairs and other equipment used in practice.
In Year 1, the main focus is on the foundation skills of physiotherapy, using a problem-solving approach. The modules draw on some of the Year 2 modules of the Physiotherapy BSc and integrate with other professions and existing Master's level modules.
In Year 2, students will study the broader concepts of clinical practice and the role of physiotherapy to meet changing health and social care needs. Students will share modules with Year 3 BSc and postgraduate professionals in order to further develop critical thinking and leadership skills in an interprofessional environment.
Students will spend 30 weeks on placement over the duration of the course, learning how to treat patients under supervision both in hospital and community settings in order to prepare students for a career as a physiotherapist.
