Physiotherapy
BPT Programme
Rehabilitation, sports medicine, and musculoskeletal care through Bachelor of Physiotherapy programmes. BPT graduates work in hospitals, sports clinics, rehabilitation centres, and private practice with strong demand in India and abroad.
BPT Programme Overview
Physiotherapy focuses on restoring movement and function after injury, surgery, or chronic conditions. The Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT) is a 4.5-year undergraduate program (including a 6-month internship) that trains students in the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of physical impairments and disabilities. BPT graduates work in hospitals, sports clinics, rehabilitation centres, and private practice with strong demand in India and abroad.
The curriculum covers anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, kinesiology, exercise physiology, and pathology in the foundational years. Students learn the scientific basis of human movement and the physiological processes that affect musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiopulmonary function. Laboratory sessions develop practical skills in assessment techniques, therapeutic exercises, and manual therapy.
Clinical specialisations include musculoskeletal physiotherapy (treatment of joint, muscle, and bone conditions), neurological physiotherapy (rehabilitation after stroke, spinal cord injury, and neurological disorders), cardiopulmonary physiotherapy (respiratory rehabilitation and cardiac recovery), paediatric physiotherapy (developmental disorders and childhood conditions), sports physiotherapy (injury prevention and athletic performance), and geriatric physiotherapy (age-related conditions and fall prevention).
Clinical internships in hospitals, rehabilitation centres, and sports facilities provide hands-on experience with diverse patient populations. Physiotherapy graduates can pursue postgraduate specialisation (MPT) in specific clinical areas, enhancing career prospects and earning potential. International licensing pathways are available in countries like UK, Australia, Canada, and the Middle East for qualified physiotherapists.
