Bachelor of Physiotherapy

Physiotherapists are health professionals who focus on the restoration of function to improve quality of life. They assess and diagnose problems with human movement, then plan and administer treatment to restore function or minimise dysfunction after disease or injury. This program's studies include health science subjects, anatomy/physiology and specialised areas such as human movement and measurement, passive manual techniques, exercise prescription, therapeutic massage, and current professional issues. In this course, there is a special focus on rural and remote practice and clinical placements are undertaken in a variety of settings.
