Course details
The team is a mixture of academic staff and lecturer practitioners who are still actively practising, so their fingers remain firmly on the pulse of the profession. We offer state-of-the-art learning facilities and equipment, high-quality placement and volunteering opportunities, and the degree is endorsed by the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC) and accredited by The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP).
As a trainee physiotherapist you’ll treat people of all ages, with a range of problems, and discover ways to help maximise each patient’s potential through your knowledge of human movement and function. You’ll also gain healthcare techniques to manage patients’ physical, psychological and social wellbeing, and because practical experience is central to this course, you’ll gain real-world experience in a diverse array of settings.
In your final year you’ll present an innovation project at a student conference, integrated to help to boost your career prospects.
