Develop and refine your skills in contemporary physiotherapeutic practice by engaging with practical research on this accredited MSc.

If you are looking for a career as a physiotherapist, our qualifying Physiotherapy MSc is the course for you. You will expand on the knowledge gained on your undergraduate degree and when you graduate will be eligible to seek registration with the Health and Care Professions Council. You will also gain membership of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy. This will lead to you being granted the protected title of Chartered Physiotherapist.

Course overview

By setting the core physiotherapy skills into practical situations, you will develop into a practitioner who is primarily focused on your clients. You will apply and analyse contemporary practice, while using evidence to determine the effectiveness of physiotherapeutic techniques. This will help you to recognise and solve clinical problems and improve service user outcomes.

You will learn leadership skills and engage in service development projects. While studying, you will learn to adapt to the changing needs of service users and changing health and social care provision.

You will consider the role of different professions and how they work alongside physiotherapists. You will do this through case scenarios, case discussion and visiting speakers from a variety of different clinical environments, including:

  • Moving and handling
  • Basic life support
  • Breakaway training
  • Fire safety
  • Infection control

We will encourage you to problem solve and discuss case scenarios with your fellow physiotherapy students. This is a model that follows current best practices within health and social care settings.

Career outcomes

Where could Physiotherapy (Pre-Registration) take you?

On this course, you will develop the skills, abilities and competencies to become a qualified and registered physiotherapist. Your clinical abilities and knowledge of NHS standards will be applicable in many healthcare settings. You may wish to further and refine your knowledge by gaining professional experience, then returning into academic study to become an advanced practitioner.
