Why This Department

Reasons students give for choosing the Department of Physiotherapy here:

  • Mentoring: Every student is attached to a faculty mentor who follows their progress across the programme.

  • Certifications: Value-added certification courses run alongside the degree.

Message Desk

Welcome to the Department of Physiotherapy. Our work here is less about teaching a fixed set of tools than about building the foundation that lets a graduate pick up the next one on their own, because every discipline changes faster than a syllabus can be revised.

Our faculty combine teaching with active research, and our laboratories stay open to students who want to build something beyond the prescribed practicals. Alongside the syllabus we run projects, industry visits and certification courses, so a student leaves with a record of work as well as a transcript.

If you are considering this department, come and see the campus - talk to the students and the teachers, not just the prospectus.
