Study Details: 2 years full-time
Running over two years (45 weeks per year), our full-time, accelerated course supports students who have an undergraduate degree in a related subject to practise as a physiotherapist. If you are already a physiotherapy graduate and have an active registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), please see our MSc Advanced Physiotherapy.
Our taught masters degree helps you to integrate physiotherapy theory with practice and to develop your skills in critical thinking. Some of the topics you'll study include the structure and function of the nervous system, cardiorespiratory system and musculoskeletal system. You’ll consider issues such as health inequalities, the legal and policy frameworks governing physiotherapy practice in the UK, and integrated care.
Many of our teaching team are actively involved in research and clinical practice alongside their teaching commitments.

As graduates from our course usually begin their physiotherapy careers by working as band 5 physiotherapists, on rotation positions in NHS hospitals. However, as a Chartered Physiotherapist,, you could work in the NHS or the private sector. Examples include hospitals, sports clubs, the community, care homes and schools.
You may also decide to refine your skills and specialise in a particular area, such as musculoskeletal, neurological or cardiorespiratory, or focus on women’s health or mental health. We offer several postgraduate qualifications, such as our MSc Advanced Physiotherapy course.
