Physiotherapy (L/SNT2)

(Città di Castello Branch)

The course of study in Physiotherapy provides the scientific basis and theoretical-practical preparation necessary to be qualified to practise as a Physiotherapist. 

The Degree Course in Physiotherapy lasts 3 years and is divided into 6 semesters; the first year is propaedeutic, the second is devoted to the study of pathologies subject to rehabilitation treatment and the Rehabilitation Sciences, and the third is vocational and specialized.

The learning pathway provides for basic, characterizing and related educational activities; it also provides for further specific professionalizing educational activities such as seminars, internships, partly compulsory, partly freely chosen by the student.

the learning pathway provides for training activities such as workshops, preparatory to internship activities.

The theoretical and practical training activities carried out in the work context are aimed at the maturation of specific professional skills, but also envisage the acquisition of behavioural skills such as to ensure, at the end of the training course, the full mastery of all the necessary competences and their immediate employability in the work environment.

he candidates will be provided with an adequate preparation in the basic disciplines, in order to enable them to better understand the most relevant elements underlying both pathological processes and recovery processes, on which their rehabilitation and/or therapeutic intervention in childhood, adulthood and geriatric age will focus. The graduates will be able to treat patients for a large number of pathologies, define their relevant rehabilitation programmes, and identify the most suitable physiotherapy/rehabilitation intervention using not only specific physiotherapy techniques or modalities, but also relational educational components.

With the increase in the average age of the general population, rehabilitation functions are the subject of pressing demands from the territory and rehabilitation facilities, which allows graduates of this class to find important job opportunities in public and private facilities where they will have the opportunity to work in multidisciplinary teams.

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

The students graduated in Physiotherapy will be able to find employment in public or private health and social-welfare facilities, either as an employee or freelance professional. In particular, occupational outlets can be identified in any field where prevention, treatment and rehabilitation interventions are required in the areas of motor, upper cortical and visceral functions resulting from pathological events of various aetiologies, whether congenital or acquired.

The students graduated in Physiotheropy perform their activities in physiotherapy and rehabilitation services within the National and Regional Health Service, private facilities accredited and affiliated with the National Health Service, research institutes, nursing homes, clinics, foundations, rehabilitation facilities and centres, nursing homes, patients' homes, spas and wellness centres, medical and/or multi-specialist surgeries. The current regulations allow for freelance activities in individual or associated professional firms, sports associations and clubs of various types, service cooperatives, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), and public or private prevention services.

In order to be admitted to the Bachelor's Degree in Physiotherapy, the candidates must have attained an upper secondary school diploma or another qualification obtained abroad and recognised as suitable. The prerequisites required of students aiming to enrol in the course should include good human contact skills, good teamwork skills, and the ability to analyze and solve problems.

Admission to the course is subject to a programmed number of students in accordance with law n. 264/99 and provides for an admission exam consisting in a test with multiple-choice answers. The student's initial preparation is assessed through the administration of an entrance test, common to all the Department's Health Area Degree Courses, consisting of multiple-choice questions on topics of logic and general culture, chemistry, biology, physics and mathematics. The knowledge required for admission, defined annually by the Ministry of Education, is verified by achieving a minimum score in the admission test. Students admitted to the course with a level below the minimum pre-set assessment (at least 40% correct answers in the disciplines of biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics) will be assigned additional training obligations (OFA) to be made up within the first year of the course.

For the purpose of allowing the annullment of eventual educational obligations personalised remedial plans will be activated under the responsibility of the teachers in the relevant disciplines. Educational obligations are deemed to have been met by passing the relevant exam. The procedures are governed by the didactic regulations of the Degree Course.

 

 

 

In order to be admitted to the final examination (degree examination), the student must have passed all the examinations, have carried out all the internships and passed all the related examinations.

Per il conseguimento della Laurea lo studente deve superare una prova finale che si compone di:

The final dissertation, includes:

  1. a practical test in which the students must demonstrate that they have acquired the theoretical-practical and technical-operational knowledge and skills pertaining to the specific professional profile;
  2. the drafting of a final dissertation, under the guidance of a supervising professor. The dissertation, on topics or disciplines closely related to the professional profile, may have a research, technical-application or compilation profile. A student who fails the practical test cannot be admitted to the dissertation.

Both phases of the final examination will take place in front of a Commission composed in accordance with the Regulations and the Faculty and Degree Course Teaching Regulations. The Degree examination is valid as a state exam qualifying for the profession. The final examination is organised in two nationally defined sessions.

The modality of implementation of the final examination and its timing are defined in the academic calendar, published on the University website and communicated by the Student Administration Office.
