Location of University of Nottingham
The Division of Physiotherapy offers excellent postgraduate opportunities for physiotherapists and related healthcare practitioners. We have a dynamic teaching team and offer the opportunity to learn under the guidance of expert practitioners, educators and researchers. Within a climate of evidence-based practice and internationalisation, the Division has developed an exciting and modern Postgraduate provision designed to facilitate excellence in reasoning and practice. Postgraduate study is an essential component of career progression and the pursuit of excellence in care delivery. We hope you will join us during this challenging and fulfilling stage of your career and we look forward to working with you to achieve your highest goals.
We are based in the Clinical Sciences Building, Nottingham City Hospital and the site offers excellent teaching facilities.
The postgraduate programme offers grounding in critical analysis and reflective practice, and will equip students with the skills to evaluate contemporary professional practice.
It has flexible modes of delivery, which will allow students to pursue a route to suit their individual needs and current professional situation. It also allows students to progress to an end point of their own choosing, whether that is a single module, a postgraduate certificate, diploma or the complete masters programme.
The Division is committed to life-long learning and has an extensive postgraduate framework that enables students to study clinically-focussed specialist pathways. The framework provides an incremental and flexible means for health care professionals to develop their knowledge and skills to advance their practice and deliver high quality patient care.
Our pathways include a strong emphasis on evidence-based practice, physiotherapy theory, and research - in addition to the pursuit of specialist interests.
The importance of postgraduate education is increasingly recognised by government, professional bodies and the public sector. Evidence of continued professional development has become a requirement for registration for many professional groups, and career progression. Much of professional development requires an ability to critically evaluate professional practice, both from the wider professional picture and an individual point of view.
Aims & Objectives
The aim of the course is to provide education and learning opportunities to individuals who aspire to become increasingly competent professional practitioners. The course will provide a foundation for professional development upon which the individual can build his/her future success. This will be achieved through a good understanding of the principles of lifelong learning and its application within the workplace.
Contents
This physiotherapy pathway is based on our traditional Continuing Professional Development (CPD) programme, which has always offered students flexible and fantastic professional development opportunities, without specialisation.
The pathway is open to all therapists and related healthcare professionals who wish to enhance their clinical skills, professional knowledge, and critical appraisal as part of their ongoing career development. The MSc level award would also be appropriate for those wishing to conduct clinically-focussed research without the commitment of undertaking a research-only degree.
In addition to the core modules, students on this pathway may choose additional modules from any of the common modules, or any of the specialised modules from the Manual Therapy or Neurorehabilitation pathways.
This course will:
o provide a thorough knowledge of the principles of professional development
o develop skills of critical thinking, problem solving and reflective practice
o develop practical skills in relation to accepted theories
