Introduction

This two year accelerated MSc Physiotherapy course will provide you with an excellent educational experience both in academic and clinical environments.

Within the themes individual modules have been developed in parallel to ensure that you benefit from a planned and coherent learning experience with an appropriate spread of workload across each year. Practice based learning is an essential part of this programme as it will allow you to experience a wide range of clinical settings and integrate theory and practice, developing clinical skills, professionalism and leadership.
