Best universities in the UK or Australia to get my MSc in Physiotherapy?

Hi,

I have recently completed my undergrad at the University of Toronto, studying Physio and Psych. I'm thinking of applying for my MSc in Physiotherapy in the UK or Australia, but I don't have the slightest idea which universities have good Physiotherapy programs/are internationally accredited. Any help will be appreciated! Thanks!

I have just completed my Physiotherapy degree at Coventry University (Leicester Cohort). I studied with a few international students that stated that Coventry University really helped them through the process. The degree itself is one of the best in the country for employment statistics due to their use of clinical reasoning exams at the end of each placement, and this standard continues to MSc level. Furthermore, Cardiff University in Wales is near my hometown and has an excellent physiotherapy postgrad programme.

For most courses you require 1-2 years experience before you can apply.

Here are some resources;

If you like I can put you in contact with the Admissions tutor for Physiotherapy at Coventry Uni :) She can help with most questions.

All the best,

Consider post grad courses at AUT University (Auckland, New Zealand). Several local and overseas physios are in the MSc program. See: Physiotherapy Postgraduate Study - AUT University
I hope the info helps.
Cheers,
Phil (physiotherapy student)
