Course summary


At Worcester, our course has a strong practical focus, incorporating case-based learning and extensive opportunities to interact with patients and professionals in class, with placements offered across the West Midlands.

After building a strong foundation of anatomical knowledge, you will learn how to diagnose and rehabilitate across a range of conditions, as well as how to prevent illness and disease. You will gain substantial practical experience in our purpose-built simulation laboratories and a range of real-life clinical environments, such as hospitals.Our team of experienced physiotherapists will supervise you as you complete 1,000 hours of placement in different clinical, health, and social care settings. This gives you familiarity with the profession, patients, and various conditions.You’ll study alongside students from our Medicine, Nursing, Social Work, and Occupational Therapy courses, providing opportunities to learn from each other and preparing you to work seamlessly in a ‘one workforce’ team in the NHS.


Placements

You will undertake placement hours every year during your three-year degree. Full-time practice learning placements equate to 37.5 hours of practice learning each week of the 6-week placement block. These learning hours will be formally recorded and signed by an authorised signatory.


Accreditation

Accredited by the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) and validated by the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). This means that when you graduate, you can apply for registration to practice as a Chartered Physiotherapist.
