Are you a physiotherapist and do you want to supplement your knowledge of evidence-basing of physiotherapeutic practice and get a master’s degree in your profession? Or are you head of a specialisation in the subject area of physiotherapy and lack the necessary skills for conducting quality assurance of your practice and procedures, for performance of projects and for boosting the general quality of your physiotherapeutic practice through continuous use of the latest, research-based knowledge?
Enhance your skills as a physiotherapist
In both cases, the Master of Science programme in Physiotherapy is precisely the programme you should apply for enrolment in to enhance your competences. The programme is specifically aimed at physiotherapists who are interested in evidence-basing, quality development and evaluation of physiotherapeutic practice.
Help ensure the quality of physiotherapeutic practice
The focus of the programme is thus on scientific theories and methodologies for how to use research results in practice as well as a high degree of clinical testing of methodologies to ensure good quality in physiotherapeutic practice, in treatment, rehabilitation and patient-oriented prevention.
With the programme, you will, as a physiotherapist, be able to perform a number of more specialised vocational and professional functions, and to participate in scientific development work. The programme will also qualify the students to identify, formulate and solve complex problems in physiotherapy specialisations in public and private institutions and companies, as well as in independent practice. Finally, graduates with a Master of Science degree in Physiotherapy will be able to embark on a PhD programme in the field of physiotherapy.
The programme is also available as a master’s programme for working professionals
If you are working and would like to study part-time, then a master’s programme for working professionals might be ideal for you.
Why study Physiotherapy?
- Graduates in physiotherapy have good and varied job opportunities. The majority of graduates find employment in the hospital sector, municipalities and the private sector.
- As a student enrolled in the Master’s programme in physiotherapy, you have ample opportunity to participate in both academic and social activities outside the programme itself.
