Physiotherapists work in a wide range of settings and focus on the management and prevention of problems relating to movement and function across the life-span.
Physiotherapy is a demanding course and we recommend that you research the career thoroughly and consider work shadowing before you come to QMUThis is a four year integrated undergraduate master’s course that leads to eligibility to apply for registration with the HCPC as a physiotherapist. Students commence the course with a view to graduating with a Master of Physiotherapy (MPhys) in four years. Years Three and Four will include some study alongside postgraduate students studying on the MSc Physiotherapy (Pre-Registration) course. There is an option for students to choose a BSc (Hons) route at the end of Year Two and they will still be eligible to apply for registration with the HCPC as a physiotherapist.
