This is a part time course that will require you to be working as a Registered Healthcare Professional or other Professional working in Clinical Biomechanics and Gait Analysis. As clinical practice involving physical therapeutic procedures has progressed, those patients seeking advice on issues relating to complaints of a biomechanical nature have increased. Furthermore, increased recreational and professional sporting activities require a practitioner skilled in clinical biomechanics. Even the treatment of traditional musculoskeletal problems benefit from knowledge of possible underlying origins of these problems.

Course Fees and Finance

The expected study pattern on this programme enables you to complete modules totalling 30 credits in your first year of study and the other 30 credits in your second year of study. If you follow this pattern of study you will pay a fee of £1,020 for your first year in 2017/18. The fee for your second year of study will be broadly the same, except that an inflationary uplift may apply.* You will be invoiced for the modules that you register for each year, so if your study pattern is different from the expected pattern, you will pay more or less each year accordingly.

* The fees listed are for the 2017/18 academic year only. Any subsequent years may be subject to an inflationary uplift.
