At the only UK university based on a hospital site, you’ll study in a clinical setting and work alongside different healthcare students and professionals. We’ve run this course for twenty years, so we know exactly what it takes to prepare students for this rewarding role.
You’ll develop expertise in anatomy, physiology and movement, as well as therapeutic exercise, manual techniques and health promotion. Carrying out your own research is part of your studies too. Past students have looked at everything from the reliability of worn technology to the effect of saddle height on cycling injury.
To help you go further in your career, we’ll also help you develop your professional skills such as communication. For example, you might be asked to prepare a presentation on a typical scenario such as the management of a child with cystic fibrosis.
On our HCPC and CSP accredited degree, learning is hands-on. Our teaching takes place in simulated environments, including our Physio Lab. Here you’ll find hospital beds, stairs and other equipment used in practice. You’ll also explore how the human body works through practical sessions in our Anatomy Suite.
To prepare you for placement, you’ll use equipment on other students and manikins. You’ll practise measuring range of movement and applying active cycle of breathing techniques as well as more advanced techniques, such as suctioning, use of non-invasive ventilation and joint mobilisation. During your placements you'll be able to build therapeutic relationships with patients and work collaboratively with them to identify the most appropriate intervention based on each person's needs and circumstances. This could include prescribing walking aids, exercise prescription or using hoists or a hydrotherapy pool.
When you complete the course, you’ll be eligible to apply to register with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP). While City St George’s programmes are recognised by many different countries, applicants are advised to check with their national authorities if they wish to practise in their chosen country.
