‘I hold the Programme delivered at Salford and the team who deliverer it in high regard. Their students are able to problem solve and rationalise treatment to a high level. These characteristics together with good treatment skills and an ability to be flexible workers particularly describe Salford Physiotherapy Students. I have employed many graduates from Salford as a result.’

Career Prospects
Through the programme you will have developed key employability skills e.g skills of enquiry, critical thinking, problem solving and reflection. You will leave the programme with an extensive portfolio to demonstrate these skills and your CPD. You will be well prepared for the application process to successfully gain employment in a variety of roles in Physiotherapy and other health and well-being related fields and/or further study.
Our graduates have gone onto work in a variety of health and wellbeing related fields. Some examples include the NHS, private sector, social services, industry, the armed forces and sporting organisations. We have seen the return of graduates working in advanced clinical roles to our post graduate study programmes to further enhance their career development. Some of our graduates work at the highest levels of professional sport such as rugby (Sale Sharks), football (Manchester City), cricket (Derbyshire CCC) and basketball (New York Nicks). Some have taken the skills they have developed and now work overseas or in Physiotherapy-related research and education.

You will gain wide-ranging experience from placements in NHS hospitals and community-based Trusts, private hospitals, sporting organisations and private practices both locally and beyond the North West region. On each clinical placement you will be supported by experienced clinicians and work as part of health care teams.
