Program description
For graduates with a pertinent first degree, our MSc in Physiotherapy (Pre-Registration) serves as a prerequisite course. It offers the chance to enroll in a physiotherapy program leading to master's level registration.
Some of our learning modules are shared with other health and social care students as part of our interdisciplinary approach to education.
To practice as an independent practitioner, you must possess the necessary academic qualifications.
And be able to reason through individualised healthcare needs. You will also need:
- to show personal qualities and values which underpin the overall care you give
- strong communication and team-working skills
- a compassionate and caring nature
Our professors have expertise in their respective fields of specialized practice. They continue to have strong practice ties with those locations, whether locally or regionally. They can offer a comprehensive view of physiotherapy.
