In this course at Curtin University, you'll learn how to prevent, treat and manage physical injuries and assist people of all ages with musculoskeletal conditions and chronic health conditions. 

You’ll graduate with an integrated honours-level qualification, ready to make a difference as a physiotherapist or to continue your studies as a researcher in the field of physiotherapy.

Your first year is interprofessional, giving you the skills you need to work as part of a dynamic healthcare team while learning about the physical, structural and physiological aspects of human form and movement.

In the following years, you’ll study musculoskeletal, cardiopulmonary cardiorespiratory and neurological sciences, as well as gerontology, paediatrics, gender health issues and pain management.

Throughout the course, you will learn how to select the best treatment option by analysing the available research evidence, the person's perspective and the health environment they are in.

To put your skills into practice, you’ll develop your practical skills in laboratory classes and complete 1,100 hours in supervised placements in hospitals and community settings, including those in rural and remote locations.

You will also become part of a research group with your peers in your third and fourth years and work to complete and potentially publish a small research study under staff supervision.
