Course summary

Physiotherapy is an exciting and ever-evolving professional career concerned with supporting individuals to live fulfilling and active lives. On this programme, you will develop the skills to act as an autonomous practitioner providing holistic, person-centred care. Successful completion of our physiotherapy programme will result in you being eligible to apply to the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) for registration, and then subsequently practice as a qualified, registered physiotherapist in the UK. A career in physiotherapy opens opportunities to work closely with public health organisations, to explore innovative ideas around health promotion and to be at the forefront of healthcare delivery. Physiotherapy offers you the chance to be in stimulating, sociable and supportive environments where you will work closely with other professions as part of multi-disciplinary teams, patients, and their families. At Cardiff University, we strive to ensure that our graduates are ready for the next step in their career and the many opportunities that await them. Our programme aims to develop your knowledge, skills (intellectual, discipline specific and transferrable), professional behaviours and values to help you secure rewarding and satisfying employment after qualifying. That is why 99% of our physiotherapy students are in employment or further study after 15 months since graduating (DiscoverUni). Accreditations
