Sport Rehabilitation Masters - Msc in Cardiff Metropolitan University
Course Overview
This course aims to develop highly competent, industry ready Sport Rehabilitation practitioners with a critical awareness of the field. This aim is achieved by developing independent, reflective students with an understanding of professional issues, clinical reasoning and evidence based practice, whilst simultaneously equipping them with the wide spectrum of practical skills essential to Sport Rehabilitation. The course is endorsed by the British Association of Sport Rehabilitators and Trainers (BASRaT) and students who complete the accredited MSc programme will be eligible to apply for registration with BASRaT.
The course has a strong focus on practical skills and competences and all students must complete a minimum of 400 hours of clinical placement experience; a requirement directly linked to (BASRaT) accreditation*. We have placement opportunities with sport rehabilitation clinics, University based and local sports teams and teams further afield for students who are prepared to travel. As part of the course students will complete a recognised advanced trauma care qualification (Level 2) that is endorsed by the Faculty of Pre-Hospital Care, Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh. This qualification is a requirement stated by BASRaT and will serve to provide students with additional knowledge and skills that will be of great benefit while completing the Professional Clinical Practice module (SSP7155) and for their working careers.
The Cyncoed campus of the Cardiff School of Sport and Health Sciences (CSSHS) is well resourced with extensive and world-class practical facilities for the teaching, learning and research components of the programme and to support the recreational and elite sport culture within the CSSHS.
Learning & Teaching
The course will be delivered using theoretical and practical lectures, seminars and work placements. Students will be expected to undertake direct study to prepare for forthcoming lectures, plan seminar activities/deliveries and read relevant research literature that tutors direct them to. Independent study time will also be a requirement and includes time when the student engages in additional problem-solving or research based activities that are related to a given module but where the activities are not directed by the module tutor.
Students will be exposed to the latest technologies and communication mediums such as, kahoot, panopto and moodle.
As postgraduate students at Cardiff Metropolitan University, your Programme Director will be your personal tutor and will provide pastoral care and academic support. Further information will be available in your programme handbook.
Employability & Careers
