Description
This well-established full-time MSc Sport & Exercise Physiotherapy course aims to develop sports physiotherapy practitioners to work at a specialist level within their field.
The course is suited to individuals working in a wide variety of sectors that involve managing people with sport or exercise related injuries, whether at high performance sport level or in a physiotherapy clinic. A minimum of two years clinical experience is required.
The curriculum was designed in collaboration with the Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Sports Medicine (ACPSM) and international organisations such as the International Federation of Sports Physiotherapists (IFSP). It is designed to help you develop towards ACPSM Gold standard level, using competencies defined by IFSPT, as well as developing the knowledge, skills and behaviours that could help you further your career within sport and exercise.
The course aims to develop your evaluative, critical thinking and problem-solving skills, and to increase your practical and theoretical knowledge of sports science and injury, so that you can apply these skills in the further advancement of your career.
Full-time students undertake the taught modules in one academic year and then have up to a further six months to complete the dissertation.
