Program Summary

Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession focused on improving physical function, mobility, and overall well-being through movement, exercise, manual therapy, and education. As a course, physiotherapy provides students with the knowledge and skills required to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiopulmonary conditions. It combines theoretical learning with practical training to ensure students understand human anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and rehabilitation techniques.  

 

Students learn about different therapeutic approaches, including electrotherapy, hydrotherapy, and exercise prescription, while also gaining hands-on experience through clinical placements in hospitals, rehabilitation centers, and sports facilities. The course emphasizes patient-centered care, communication skills, and evidence-based practice to prepare graduates for diverse work environments.  

 

Physiotherapy education typically includes coursework in pathology, kinesiology, pain management, and health promotion. It also covers specialized areas such as pediatric physiotherapy, sports rehabilitation, and geriatric care. Graduates can work in various healthcare settings, including hospitals, private clinics, sports teams, and community health programs, or pursue further studies and research in the field. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in restoring function and enhancing the quality of life for individuals recovering from injuries, surgeries, or chronic conditions.
