BSc (Hons) Physiotherapy
Study with us to develop the expertise, knowledge, and skills to practice as a physiotherapist. Our expert team at the University of Derby prepare you to be part of a multidisciplinary health and social care team with the clinical, leadership, digital and research skills for the future. Our approach is practice based and you learn in a stimulating environment with a focus on efficacy and the holistic well-being of the patient.
We are working toward approval from the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP). This means you will be eligible to apply for registration as a physiotherapist with the HCPC and membership of the CSP once you graduate.
Please note that our modules are subject to change - we review the content of our courses regularly, making changes where necessary to improve your experience and graduate prospects.
Almost half of the course is taken up with exciting opportunities to enhance your skills in real-world settings. There are five periods of practice-based learning, which you usually undertake full time, for a set number of weeks during each year of study.
Primarily in the East Midlands, the settings for practice-based learning range from the NHS, private and voluntary sectors. You’ll experience how Physiotherapists work with people in different age groups and with different physical and mental health concerns. This builds the optimum range of skills for becoming a qualified practitioner and helps you make more informed decisions about your future career direction.
