Course structure
The Bachelor of Science in Physiotherapy is a four-year degree programme which includes a total of 31 weeks clinical practice in the last two years of the
programme. The first year provides a foundation in Anatomy and Physiology, communication and behaviour, and an Introduction to Physiotherapy
Practice. Over the remaining three years you will undertake studies in the various disciplines of physiotherapy including cardiorespiratory care, clinical
neurology and musculoskeletal disorders for people across the lifespan. Research and evidence-based practice are core elements underpinning the
programme. Year four introduces two case-based modules that provide students with the opportunities to engage in discipline specific and inter-
professional learning through multi-complex cases scenarios. Independent learning is promoted through the work on a final year project. Students will
also undertake their final two Practice Education modules.

Course structure
This four-year degree course incorporates a practical approach to solving problems and fosters a research-oriented and reflective attitude. It embraces
evidence-based practice. The courses studied in the first and second years include the study of occupation, occupational therapy theories and
interventions with people from children to older adults, anatomy, physiology, psychology, disability studies, research methods and statistics. You will be
encouraged to ‘learn by doing’ in subjects related to personal development such as communications and creative problem solving and in courses that
teach the professional and technical skills of practice such as assistive technology. You will be required to engage in service learning through voluntary
work and will use experiential learning and group work to develop knowledge and skills in an activity of your choice. During the first two years, there are a
total of 11 weeks in supervised professional practice in a variety of health and community care facilities around the country. Assessment includes written
examinations, essays, project work, presentations, and competency-based assessment while on supervised practice education. During the Sophister years
you will further develop your knowledge of the theories, principles and practice of occupational therapy; gain an understanding of health/social care
systems and policies and of the importance of practising in an evidenced-based manner. Service learning is continued and incorporates a peer education
methodology. Additionally, you will complete a group research project. You will have opportunities to develop important self-directed learning and
research skills, which are key areas for practice. Over the course of these two years, you will spend a total of 22 weeks in supervised professional practice.
Assessment includes written examinations, essays, project work, presentations, a research project, and competency based assessment while on
supervised practice education.
As a qualified occupational therapist from Trinity, you will be well equipped to pursue a very rewarding career working with people of all age groups in a
wide range of service settings. The course is approved by the World Federation of Occupational Therapists (www.wfot.org.au), so when you complete your
degree, you are qualified to work as an occupational therapist in Ireland, as well as abroad. Many graduates from the programme are working in all parts
of the world. Most occupational therapists, over time, develop specialised expertise in areas such as physical rehabilitation, neuro-cognitive rehabilitation,
mental health, hand therapy, intellectual disability, palliative care, paediatrics, services for the elderly and primary care. Practice areas are expanding,
particularly in school settings and in primary care community practice areas. Other examples include work in private practice, work with people who are
homeless, and running healthy living and stress management clinics. A number of occupational therapists move into management – managing
occupational therapy departments or other health/social care related services. Additionally, the course offers many opportunities for further postgraduate
study.

The aim of physiotherapy is to help people recover from physical discomfort and ailments. If
you are interested in helping others and are prepared to work hard, then the European School
of Physiotherapy (ESP, bachelor's programme) may be the right choice for you. Curriculum
fundamentals are International Orientation, Evidence Based Practice, Multi Professional
Healthcare and Communication. In the first four semesters, several patient categories will be
used as “theme” for that specific semester: Musculoskeletal, Cardiopulmonary, Neurological
and Complex patients. All mandatory courses, as listed on the official grade list, are categorized
in four different lines: Basics The aim of the basics line is to provide students with fundamental
knowledge and understanding of the human body in various subjects. Anatomy, physiology,
biomechanics and neurology are subjects that are needed as a foundation for making
appropriate choices as a physiotherapist. Skills The aim of the skills line is to provide the
students with the fundamental skills needed to become a highly educated physiotherapist. The
essential subjects in this line are Applied Anatomy and Massage, Assessment, Interventions,
Clinimetrics. The skills courses are connected to the semester’s patient categories and will use various teaching methods, such as lectures, working in
pairs, group work and self-study. Clinical Reasoning The aim of the clinical reasoning line is to connect the basics, skills and professional lines with each
other. Most important is the integration of knowledge, attitude and skills (competencies) and the translation of these competencies into the clinical setting.
In this line there will be time for patient encounters during clinical sessions, discussion of patient cases through methods of theoretical examples and
application of clinical reasoning systems, making use of (among others) The International Classification of Functioning (ICF) and the Multi-Dimensional
Load and Carriability Model (MDLC). Professional The aim of the professional line is to help the student develop into a professional. After completing the
degree programme, the student must be able to work independently as a professional practitioner and with a critical attitude. The foundation of the
curriculum is based on the professional profile (KNGF) and set against an international context. Students will develop their professional competencies
through a step-by-step development of knowledge, attitude and skills and make these an integral part of their professional conduct. For further details of
the programme, please refer to the ESP study guide. In this document, all course objectives, teaching and examination methods, contact hours, literature
and other relevant info is presented in detail.

We will teach you a range of things, including all of the aspects that you will be likely to
encounter as a Physiotherapist. In addition to your patients, you will also have dealings with
colleagues, doctors, specialists and other medical staff. Even if you have a perfect command of
the theory, your social skills will be just as important for the effective practice of your
profession. Therefore, we devote a great deal of attention to practical training and during the
course of your studies, you will already spend a lot of time working together with your fellow
students. In small groups, you will undertake assignments and you will work on practical
assignments. Of course, all of this will be done under the supervision of teaching staff and your
Study Career Advisor.

Course details
Course structure
The programme has a duration of four years. Approximately half of the study time will be allocated to self-study. The other half of the study time will be
allocated to (working) lectures and practical lessons. During the lectures the theory will be covered. During the practical lessons, you will practice
physiotherapy skills . During the medical practical sessions, you will learn about the structure and workings of your own body. All of the subjects covered
will be interrelated.
A Physiotherapist can opt to be employed, such as at a hospital, a nursing home, a rehabilitation centre, a school for disabled children or within a practice
run by another Physiotherapist. As a Physiotherapist, you may also opt to start your own Physiotherapy Practice. The profession of Physiotherapy is under
development within the preventive sector. You could work for a company, at a fitness centre, or for a sporting association. Thereby, you could be kept busy
with the prevention of complaints by, for example, focussing on the correct working posture of the employees, or good preparation in relation to
sportspeople.
