Course Details
The Master of Physiotherapy (Graduate Entry) enables students who have already completed a bachelor's degree or equivalent in a health-related area to meet the registration requirements to practice as a physiotherapist with just two years of extra study. Students develop the capability to assess, treat and prevent human movement disorders and undertake supervised clinical practice within a vast range of industry organisations. Some placements take place in the state-of-the-art Physiotherapy Clinics, located on-campus. This practical experience is a great way for students to apply what they have learnt during their studies and encourages them to build industry networks and relationships.
