Course Overview

The MSc in Physiotherapy offers a modern, research-informed curriculum designed to fast-track entry into the physiotherapy profession. This full-time, two-year graduate-entry programme provides an accelerated pathway for graduates from health, science, and related disciplines to qualify as physiotherapists.

Developed in collaboration with our clinical partners, the programme prepares students to work both independently and collaboratively to deliver high-quality, person-centred care across diverse healthcare settings. Teaching is primarily in-person, and combines rigorous academic education, hands-on clinical skills training, and a minimum of 1,000 hours of supervised clinical placement.

 In addition to learning about the core specialties of musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiorespiratory physiotherapy, a key strength of the programme is its focus on chronic disease management and community care. Through a blend of academic study and clinical placements, students will gain the clinical knowledge, research skills, and professional attributes needed to thrive in a wide range of health and social care environments.

The aim of this programme is to graduate highly skilled physiotherapists capable of working safely and autonomously in an evolving profession, delivering evidence-based, person-centred care. The MSc in Physiotherapy will provide exemplary academic education and clinical training enabling graduates to work competently across a range of health conditions and sectors.
