Summary

This programme has been designed with partners in clinical practice to further develop healthcare professional's expert musculoskeletal knowledge and skills by improving the translation of evidence into practice, promoting critical thinking and advanced clinical reasoning whilst adapting to different environments and considering the needs of diverse populations and communities. Students will develop specialist skills to enable them to deliver safe, effective, person-centred care to people presenting with complex musculoskeletal conditions.

Students will develop knowledge and skills in education, leadership and research and work towards application in a clinical and organisational context. They will have the opportunity to complete mentored clinical practice in order to consolidate and apply theoretical knowledge within an out-patient clinic or enhanced or advanced practice environment. This will give students the opportunity to expand their skills in a variety of healthcare settings.

Full time students shall normally take 18 months to complete the full award. Part-time students shall normally take a minimum of 3 academic years, maximum 5 academic years to complete the full award. The part time route is flexible but registered, on course students, must study a minimum of 20 credits in each academic year.

A route to membership of the Musculoskeletal Association of Physiotherapists (MACP) may be available to physiotherapists with HCPC registration. Students wishing to gain MACP membership must be qualified physiotherapists registered with the Health and Care Professions Council.
