Hi all
I am a physio graduate trying for a masters degree in uk.Thing is im not hpc registered.Any idea about good colleges?how is Leeds met?how good is a MSc rehabilitation course btw as compared to a normal MSc?
Are there no MPT degrees being conferred?They even have an MA in physio!
any help would be appreciated
cheers

Hi I trained at Teesside Uni and did the 2 year MSc Rehabilitation science course. I really enjoyed it. The work schedule was heavy but worth it. We did a lot of problem based learning which made us all quite independent evidence based practitioners. Great facilities at Teesside.

Thanks estellemyers!

How difficult is it to get accepted there?so MSc rehabilitation is a good choice?after that one can apply for a hpc registration isnt that so?any other good uni's you may know of also pls do let me know.

hii,
i am sorry to say tht plz dont apply for courses where u dont need h.p.c. i have seen my friends returning back after getting a visa, they r aint worthy for the profession. apply fur the h.p.c and then apply for the universities:keele,sheffield hallam, northumbria and many more.................

Hi there drkiran4u!

Are you sure abt this?do you mean to say that their standard is not good enough-is that why?

I would agree with these comments. It should only be advised that you attend a course that will permit you registration with the HPC. Otherwise you cannot use the title "Physiotherapist". It is now a protected title in the UK. Also you will not find it eay to get any job without HPC registration.

If the course covers the content required to be a proficient Physio in the UK then it is recognised by the HPC. If not then perhaps one should look very carefully at what they will gain by doing a NON-recognised course.
