Course overview

This specialised interdisciplinary MSc programme is an exciting, innovative and forward thinking course which will help you challenge your current working practice in rehabilitation.

Our successful programme offers participants the opportunity to enhance the skills of critical enquiry and gain an appreciation of the underlying theory, research and policy guiding current rehabilitation practice. We welcome UK, EU and international applicants.

The MSc in Rehabilitation is suitable for all practitioners working in health and social care including nurses, doctors, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, social workers and speech and language therapists. Previous cohorts have included an interdisciplinary mix of practitioners working in both general and specialist areas of rehabilitation for providers such as community, intermediate care, acute, independent sector and local authorities, both in the UK and overseas.

The programme comprises a number of modules which can be focused directly to meet the needs of your own work context. The MSc in Rehabilitation is led by a team of senior academics and advanced practitioners in rehabilitation.

Students are offered a variety of options in order to achieve the PgCert, PgDip or MSc in Rehabilitation.

Successful applicants will be invited for an interview (or a Skype interview for international students) prior to beginning the MSc in Rehabilitation to enable a discussion regarding the area of research for their thesis.
