What Will You Learn?
The Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT) is a professional undergraduate programme designed to prepare students for a rewarding career in rehabilitation and healthcare. The course combines in-depth academic learning with extensive clinical training, enabling students to assess, diagnose, and manage a wide range of physical conditions through evidence-based physiotherapy interventions.

A significant feature of the programme is its emphasis on practical learning.

The final six-month compulsory internship provides valuable real-world experience, allowing students to work with patients across various specialties and prepare for independent professional practice.
