Overview
Program description:
Physiotherapists act as autonomous practitioners who are able to perform functional examinations, identify impairments, functional limitations, abilities and disabilities by using clinical decision-making processes. Physiotherapists treat patients with movement therapy and manual techniques, as the professionals’ chief task is to improve the functions of the musculoskeletal system. The therapists develop movement therapies and apply electrotherapeutic treatment, therapeutic ultrasound, and different manual and massage treatments for the sake of healing and rehabilitation or for the prevention of health damage. Graduates take part in healing locomotor (orthopaedic, rheumatologic, traumatologic), cardiovascular, obstetrical, gynaecological, neurological and psychiatric disorders. Prevention and health promotion belong to the specialists’ profession, too. Physiotherapists plan, explain, carry out, and adapt an examination-based treatment, draw conclusions from the examination as a whole and rank the main problems according to priority.

Programme structure
The detailed requirements for teaching and studies, as well as the detailed regulations for training are laid down in the curriculum. The curriculum comprises compulsory, compulsory elective and elective subjects. A compulsory subject is one the completion of which is prescribed for everyone concerned in the programme. To complete an elective subject, students can choose from a set of subjects listed by the institution (especially specializations in a programme or subjects requiring special differentiated knowledge, degree thesis.)
A credit point (study point) is a unit of measure of average total student coursework workload needed to complete a subject (coursework unit). Credits can only be awarded for the subjects which are evaluated on a five or three-point grading system. The credit point value is independent of the
mark obtained, but the precondition of validating it is fulfilment of the conditions of this present set of rules, by fulfilling the requirements for a particular subject at least at pass level, or in the case of a 3-point grading scale at least at satisfactory level.
One credit point corresponds to fulfilment of 30 working hours of student workload. Student work includes both the hours spent at a lesson (contact hours) and the individual work (individual hours).
