The vision of the UCD BSc Physiotherapy Programme is to educate Physiotherapists;

• Who are highly skilled autonomous practitioners that demonstrate a whole-person and compassionate approach to patient care using evidence and research skills to inform and advance physiotherapy practice. 
• Who demonstrate advocacy and leadership for clients and the profession in local, national and global dynamic healthcare environments. 

 

This course leads to one of the most rewarding careers in healthcare: Chartered Physiotherapist. Physiotherapy is the study and application of the scientific knowledge and professional skills required for the promotion of optimal health and well-being of adults and children through physical means. In addition to UCD based learning you’ll spend over 1,000 hours on supervised clinical education in hospitals and clinical centres throughout Ireland and abroad (optional). UCD’s full-time BSc Physiotherapy degree is accredited by the Irish Society of Chartered Physiotherapists, and will appeal to students who enjoy science and caring for people.

 

The BSc Physiotherapy Programme is recognised by CORU, the Health and Social Care Professionals Regulatory Body, as an approved programme.
