The BSc Top-Up programme is specifically designed to provide FdSc Sports Therapy graduates with a challenging curriculum that will develop their knowledge and clinical skills in preparation for employment in the sports industry. The programme will also provide a Top-Up route for students who hold other relevant qualifications.Students on NESCOT higher education course are typically taught in class sizes of 16 or fewerThe BSc Top-Up programme is validated by Kingston University and delivered at Nescot. The College promotes a supportive learning environment for its students. With low staff to student ratios the College is able to provide excellent academic support to enhance the learning experience. Students will benefit from innovative and collaborative teaching strategies that are engaging and designed to contextualise the academic knowledge and skills within the curriculum. Academic and pastoral support is underpinned by a Personal Tutor system that enables students to engage with the subjects being addressed in their modules, explore entrepreneurship activities and develop skills in finding and successfully applying for careers opportunities.In addition, students will benefit from access to Kingston University’s Student Union, sports clubs and societies.The programme competencies closely reflect the core competencies and disciplines expected of the Sports Therapy governing bodies, and meet the National Occupational Standards in Sports Therapy. The programme equips graduates with the appropriate knowledge and skills to seek employment in the sports therapy industry.Emphasis is placed upon developing the strength and conditioning principles that are incorporated throughout injury rehabilitation for a wide range of populations. Knowledge of anatomy, physiology and clinical assessment principles are developed to provide advanced and effective clinical reasoning for a wide range of sports therapy treatments. Students enrolled on the programme will build a detailed knowledge of emergency action plans and normal operating procedures associated with working as a pitch-side sports therapist. This will include an understanding of advanced clinical skills in electrotherapies, advanced osteopathic mobilisations and emergency trauma.Students enrolled on the programme will accumulate 300 hours of clinical and emergency trauma practice. Principally these hours will be accrued through simulated placement within the Nescot sports injuries clinic, assessing and treating sports teams, the wider public, college staff and students. There will also be opportunities to accrue emergency trauma practice hours through pitch-side work with Nescot College sports teams and Kingston University British University and Colleges Sport (BUCS) teams. This will enable students to develop their match preparation, pitch-side care and post-match treatment of injuries as a sports therapist.Finally, students will be prepared in undertaking an independent research project on a sports therapy topic. It will require students to draw upon the knowledge of fundamental principles and theories of treatment, rehabilitation, clinical application and research delivered throughout the academic year. The project is a “capstone” module and a key final component of the programme, and develops student’s skills in designing, planning and implementing research.
