Course Content

Brunel has a long and successful history of teaching Physiotherapy. Indeed the Physiotherapy programmes currently at Brunel have evolved over the last five decades.

Our programmes have been adapted over-time to ensure that they are always contemporary, cutting edge and reflective of current clinical practice, in order to best prepare the graduate for their role in a changing work place.

We have consistently produced high calibre graduates with high levels of employment.  

94% of London Clinical educators supervising our final year students rated them as excellent or very good. (2009-2011)


Our Physiotherapy Masters course is an exciting and innovative modular programme, delivered full-time over two-years. Applicants should be aware that the programme is delivered over a period 46 weeks per year. In addition the course is intense, the volume of learning is high and hence contact hours are high. Students should expect campus-based studies from 9:00 am 6:00 pm five days a week.  All students must be ready to assume responsibility for their own learning.

Clinical placements will start in the summer period at the end of Year 1. Students should broadly expect to adopt the working patterns of the supervising clinician (clinical educator). Generally students are expected to complete five blocks of clinical experience, each of six weeks duration. You should expect to be working roughly a 34 hour week whilst on placement. Further details of clinical education are given below.

If you click on the schema of the programme (below) you can see how the course is arranged term by term and year by year.

Schemes of Study (subject to validation)

You will develop neurological physiotherapeutic assessment and treatment skills including the ability to clinical reason and justify the decisions you make.

Clinical Preparation
This study block falls just prior to your first clinical placement. At this point you will have much knowledge and many new skills to draw on and to make your clinical placement a great experiential learning experience. This module is designed to provide an opportunity to investigate issues that affect therapy practice within the NHS for example professional accountability, legislation, multidisciplinary team work, effective communication and documentation, cultural, environmental and the role of differing health beliefs and models of health care delivery. In addition on a practical level you will learn safe and effective manual handling and basic life support.

Clinical Placement 1
This module is the first of the five clinical placements which occur during the second and third year of the physiotherapy programme. Each placement lasts for six weeks. On this placement you will have the opportunity to apply and develop your basic skills of assessment and treatment to a variety of relevant health disorders. With appropriate guidance you will be able to identify patient’s problems and make informed decisions regarding the interventions you select.

Further details of the clinical placement modules are given at the end of the section on Module Outlines – in order to save repetition. Assessment: performed by the supervising clinical educator on your placement using a standardised proforma that documents your performance on placement.

Cardiovascular Health

Clinical Placement 2
This module is the second of five clinical placements which occur during the second and third year of the physiotherapy programme. The placement is of six weeks duration. On this placement you will have the opportunity to apply and develop your basic skills of assessment and treatment to a variety of relevant health disorders. With appropriate guidance you will be able to identify patient’s problems and make informed decisions regarding the interventions you select.

Further details of the clinical placement modules are given at the end of the section on Module Outlines – in order to save repetition. Assessment: Performed by the supervising clinical educator on your placement using a standardised proforma that documents your performance on placement.

Clinical placement 3
This module is the first of three clinical placement modules which occur towards the end of Year 2. As before, all placements are of six weeks duration and all students are assessed by the supervising clinicians.

Research Methodology
This module will develop your knowledge of the principles and concepts which underpin quality research. It will also extend your understanding of evidence-based practice and the role of ongoing research in clinical practice.

Research Dissertation
The Research Methodology module aims to provide you with the means to develop your own research dissertation on a subject relevant to physiotherapy but otherwise of your own choice, in which you demonstrate your sound understanding of the research process.

Professional Practice
This is an interdisciplinary module designed to develop your ability to analyse and integrate the parameters of contemporary practice as influenced by current policy and multi-agency working. You will further develop and consolidate your Continuing Professional Development (CPD) portfolio through evidence of reflective practice and critical analysis of contemporary work place practices and policies.

Clinical Placement 4
This is your penultimate clinical placement of the programme. As before, this placement is of six weeks duration and you will be assessed by the supervising clinicians. You are now very close to completion of the programme and we would now expect you to be competently managing patients of increasing levels of complexity. Signs of clinical leadership should also be apparent at this stage, and your communication and clinical reasoning skills should be well honed by the end of this placement.

Clinical Placement 5
This is your final clinical placement of the programme. As before, this placement is of six weeks duration and you will be assessed by the supervising clinicians. You are now extremely close to completion of the programme and we would definitely expect you to be demonstrating an increasing level of autonomy along with an understanding of your professional limitations, accountability and role within the inter-disciplinary team. In short we would expect you to be managing your case-load much like a newly qualified physiotherapist.

After completion of your final clinical placement module it’s now just a case of waiting for the results and of course for the graduation ceremony.

 

Clinical Education

Clinical education is an integral and invaluable component of the programme. It is strongly embedded within the course structure. Preceding campus-based studies provide the skills and knowledge which students require in order to be prepared for their placements.

Continuing modernisation of the NHS has seen a move away from a focus on non-acute health interventions being delivered in hospitals to the delivery of care in the community. Experience gained on all clinical education modules throughout your undergraduate training aims to reflect these developments by providing you with a broad range of experience across a variety of settings including acute NHS hospitals, private healthcare providers, community hospitals, health centres, GP surgeries, schools, nursing homes and sports centres etc.

Regardless of location or speciality students are expected to adopt a holistic approach towards their patient/client, taking into account individual psychological, social, cultural and economic factors, whilst embracing the principles of health promotion and health education.

All clinical placement modules are organised on the student's behalf by the clinical co-ordination team. This allows us to provide you with a balanced clinical experience both in terms of the specialities/patient groups you have worked with and the range of health care setting you have worked in. It is important that you are exposed to a variety of health settings, which are reflective of current clinical practice.

In total students will complete in excess of 1,000 hours of clinical experience in order to complete the programme. As you can see from the schema; clinical education occurs in six-week blocks which gives you time to “find your feet” and have a highly valuable learning experience at the same time as providing you with plenty of opportunity to demonstrate your learning.

It is anticipated that whilst on clinical placement you will be working a 34-hour week minimum, (compared to full-time workers this effectively means you have one half-day off per week). However, the number of hours you work and the time at which you start and finish work is subject to negotiation with both college and the supervising clinical educator.

Whilst on placements you will be supervised by physiotherapists registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). Students will be assessed on placement by their supervising clinician(s), using a standardized assessment tool – the Clinical Assessment Record (CAR form). The assessment score from clinical placement modules will contribute to your final degree classification

Most clinical placements are located within the Greater London area, ie within the M25, but a few could be further away necessitating “staying over on placement” during the week. You should anticipate the need to “stay over” on at least one or two occasions.

We are sympathetic to your needs when we assign clinical placements. However, we are unable to guarantee that any student will be located close to their home or term-time address and you may have to commute or live away from home for the duration of a placement or two. We do try to give special consideration to students whose personal circumstances fall within specified criteria, i.e. they have young children, are a main carer, or have a declared disability etc.

If NHS-London is paying your university fees, your travel costs (in excess of the expense you normally incur between home and college) and if necessary the costs of alternative accommodation can be reclaimed from the NHS. However you should note that they is always a delay between paying out money and being reimbursed which can create temporary cash-flow issues.

Teaching and Learning

Our primary aim is to combine a thorough professional education with academic excellence and a wide and solid skills base. With respect to your university-based studies we use a variety of teaching and learning methods throughout the course including lectures, tutorials, and practical sessions (small groups), study guides and computer based learning packages.

As a Physiotherapy Masters student we expect you to come to us with specific academic skills and abilities. Your learning will rapidly become “self-directed. We will build upon your ability to perform literature searches and critically appraise the evidence base and so prepare you for your commitment to continued professional development and lifelong learning after qualifying.

Assessment

We will employ a variety of assessment tools to judge your knowledge and performance including: unseen written exams, written assignments, practical exams, vivas, literature reviews and a project proposal etc.

All modules must be passed in order to proceed through the course. Normally students will have two attempts at passing each assessment.

Employability

Brunel University prides itself on its track record of producing high calibre Physiotherapy MSc graduates. It is generally recognised that our graduates leave us with the skills required to be safe, effective and flexible autonomous clinicians. We achieve this record through our focus on:

• professionalism and professional development
• the application of basic science and knowledge to the clinical situation
• the needs of the patient for effective communication, compassion, dignity, confidentiality and respect
• evidence based practice
• practical skills underpinned by a sound understanding of science and scientific principles
• problem solving as evidenced by our teaching and learning situations and our assessment requirements
• developing the confident autonomous practitioner who through a process of learnt reflection is aware of their own strengths and weaknesses
• developing the self reliant life long learner with the skills and motivation to address weaknesses and to build on strengths
• developing the critical thinker able to evaluate scientific evidence and able to make valid judgements regarding evidence based practice and to contribute themselves to the profession and to the evidence base via their own research

These are some of the skills which we seek to provide our students with whilst they are with us, during their campus based studies. These skills are further compounded when students spend time completing their 30 weeks of clinical practice.

Careers

At Brunel, the physiotherapy teaching team strongly recommends that graduates enter the NHS on qualification. We feel that the organisation of the NHS and the scope of patients who pass through the NHS offer newly graduated physiotherapists an invaluable learning opportunity as it provides a solid clinical foundation on which to base your future career choices.

However of course as a Physiotherapy Masters graduate you will have choices!

Professional Accreditation

• Successful completion of the Masters programme means you will be eligible to apply for registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) Successful registration with the HCPC will allow you to practice as a physiotherapist in the UK. Successful completion of the programme will also enable you to become a member of the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (MCSP).

Fees for 2013/14 entry

UK fees

Brunel’s Physiotherapy Masters course offers Ten UK students an NHS bursary, which will cover all course fees and which also includes a small means tested maintenance allowance for general living purposes.

Students from outside the EU will be required to self-fund at the international rate. Currently these fees are approximately £15,000 per year. Applicants should budget for the fact that the fees can increase annually.

Read about funding opportunities available to postgraduate students

Fees quoted are per annum and are subject to an annual increase.

Entry Requirements

We expect all applicants to have thoroughly researched the profession prior to applying. This research requires review of the CSP website and other relevant web sites/literature and observational clinical experience is advised.

We also expect all graduates to have experience in the critical evaluation of research literature, statistics, research methods and/or a dissertation at BSc level and to be proficient independent learners.

A satisfactory health declaration and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check will be required from all applicants.

Observational Clinical Placements and the Application process:

It is vital that all applicants to the program are thoroughly aware of what the physiotherapy profession entails. This awareness needs to be properly grounded in reality rather than notion.

Hence we ask all applicants to undertake a thorough review of the available literature.

We prefer applicants to undertake an observational clinical placement, although we do recognise that this can be difficult.

We advise you in the first instance to write to the physiotherapy managers of your local NHS hospitals requesting a day or two of observation. You may need to write to several hospitals. Asking for short periods of time tends to be received better than asking for too much!

You will not require a long period of observation although the exact time will vary from person to person. However you do need long enough for you to be able to make a “hand on heart” decision that Physiotherapy is the profession for you.

Once you have got to this point you should find it relatively easy to write your personal statement, demonstrating your insight into the profession, explaining how your observational experience has informed your decision to study physiotherapy and highlighting the personal characteristics of the physiotherapist and why you think you’d be a good one!

If you do not manage to secure an NHS short placement, try the private sector – predominantly small physiotherapy private practices. Alternatively try and secure time in a nursing home. These placements have several limitations which you should be aware of but are still extremely valuable. Then it’s up to you to tell us (on your personal statement) how your experiences have informed your decision to be a physiotherapist etc. and how your experiences can be translated to physiotherapy.

 

General entry criteria:

A minimum 2:1 degree classification plus a sound A level profile.

Ideally the degree should be in a biological / biomedical discipline. However we will accept a range of other degrees provided that the applicant has a sound A level profile and has studied biology or ideally human biology to grade B at A level within the last four years.

A sound A level profile means basically three A levels at grade B minimum. We prefer A levels from the following list which includes; Chemistry, Classical Civilisations, Economics, English, Geography, History, Languages, Law, Maths (Further Maths or Statistics), Physical Education, Physics, Politics, Psychology, Sociology, Sport Studies.

However on an individual basis we may agree to deviate slightly from this list.

We are more than happy to consider applicants who did not initially study biology at A level or degree level provided that prior to starting the MSc Physiotherapy they are able to address this lack of biology by either attaining:

• A level human biology or biology via college or distance learning package – grade B required.
• Open University: a 70% minimum pass of a 30-credit Level 2 module in Human Biology (SK277).
• Birkbeck College – London University – Certificate of Higher Education - Life Sciences [Biology and Chemistry]): Applicants considered with a distinction profile in biology and a merit profile in chemistry.

If you are unsure if your qualifications meet our Physiotherapy Masters criteria then please do feel free to email a comprehensive outline of your academic qualifications to physioadmmsc@brunel.ac.uk

 

Health and the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check
A satisfactory health declaration and Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check will be required from all applicants. For further guidance please email admissions@brunel.ac.uk.
