quote

"Early in the course, my course leader explained to me that this course is designed to make students think about, reflect on and evaluate their own practice.

Now that I have finished, I feel that the course has changed my views about physiotherapy and its practice totally. For me, the entire course has been a very valuable learning experience. I found it interesting, challenging and rewarding. The excellent, internationally renowned academic staff and friendly environment were a bonus on top."

Amrit Biswas, Physiotherapy MSc
