Physiotherapy

In the Master of Physiotherapy, you’ll be equipped with the skills and knowledge as informed by current and emerging evidence to become a confident, resilient and enterprising physiotherapist. You’ll gain an authentic experience of working in clinical environments and health care systems through four clinic practice placements and a work immersive program within a community setting.




Supported Units

1. SPH20010

Fundamental Principles of Biomechanics: This unit investigates the fundamental principles of biomechanics associated with human movement. Kinematic and kinetic principles will be applied to sporting and everyday movements to improve performance, improve health or reduce injury. Students will use a variety of qualitative and quantitative techniques to analyse human movement.

2. SPH20011

Clinical and Sports Movement Analysis: This unit extends students’ knowledge of human movement. Students will apply their knowledge by undertaking a project that consolidates their understanding by integrating their knowledge of functional anatomy, biomechanics, motor learning and control. Students will use appropriate scientific design to analyse exercise or sport science movements to improve performance, health or reduce injury. Students’ ability to select appropriate technology, use, analyse and report on human movement is a major focus.

3.PHT60001

Applied Anatomy and Biomechanics for Physiotherapists: This unit consolidates knowledge and understanding of the neuro-musculoskeletal anatomy and biomechanics. Students will utilise anatomy and biomechanical principles to assess every day human movement and performance.
