The Bachelor’s Degree Course in Physiotherapy at the University of Florence trains healthcare professionals specialising in the prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of motor, higher cortical and visceral dysfunctions resulting from pathological conditions of various aetiologies, whether congenital or acquired. The three-year programme integrates basic and clinical sciences with the study of the main physiotherapy methodologies, based on scientific evidence. Students develop the ability to carry out functional assessments, plan treatment and evaluate outcomes independently. Significant emphasis is placed on professional placements in hospitals and community settings, under the guidance of expert tutors. Upon completion of the programme, graduates are qualified to practise the profession and are ready to work in hospital, community and outpatient settings.
