Physiotherapy Studies: Cardiorespiratory MSc

About

About this degree

This MSc offers you the opportunity to extend your understanding of key areas in cardiorespiratory physiotherapy, including challenging the foundations of established but poorly justified treatments, developing and undertaking clinical research. You will learn about new and emerging treatment options and benefit from the mentorship of recognised experts in cardiorespiratory physiotherapy.

Who this course is for

This degree is suitable for World Physiotherapy recognised qualified physiotherapists with less than two years cardiorespiratory experience, or for experienced practitioners who prefer not to undertake clinical placements for various reasons including restrictions on study leave. Although you do not need to have two years of clinical experience, stronger applicants will have at least 12 months post qualifying, beyond their internship, supervised work within the field of cardiorespiratory. Applications without this will be considered much less favourably.
