The bridging programme (45 ECTS) allows students with a professional Bachelor degree in Physiotherapy to acquire the necessary knowledge and competences which they will need to proceed to the Master of Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy.
The bridging programme takes one academic year and is taught in English. There is only one intake per academic year (September) and it is a part-time programme. This means that classes are concentrated on two (and occasionally three) days per week. This is illustrated in the model timetable.
In academic year 2024-2025 the study programme will be slightly different from the 2023-2024 programme. The new programme will be published here in March 2024.
Students cannot apply for the bridging programme separately. Based on the documents submitted during the application procedure, the Admission Board will decide whether a candidate can start in the Master's programme directly or whether they need to do the bridging programme first. The Board cannot make this decision based on an email with attachments. So please do not send us emails to ask if you have to start in the bridging programme, but complete the admission procedure instead.
Students who pass the bridging programme do not receive a diploma, but a certificate. This certificate gives permission to register for the Master's programme.
