    Re: Physiotherapy studies abroad

    Hi,
    yes, looks like the Dutch universities offer a great programme, I just didn't know that it was in English.
    But also, you have to consider where to do your clinical placements, because they won't be in English and I would not expect that the clinical supervisors are happy to do their communication with you in English.
    Good luck,
    Fyzzio

    Can I be a bit cheeky and ask you which Dutch course I posted you think is best?
    I am applying for both but I'm not sure which is the best option.

    The Dutch offer a Dutch taught Physiotherapy programme and also and English taught programme. I believe they are 1 of the only countries to do so.

    Your point on the clinical placements is honestly something I haven't considered fully. I have a friend who is competing for Britons Strongest man so this year I will be working closely with his physiotherapist gaining some great experience. Then after my course and maybe even through my course he will be competing for Worlds Strongest Man so I'll be seeing if I can go with him to that as well.
    I will continue learning Dutch but you are right about the clinical placements. I will contact the university and ask them what options are available.

    Thank you
