Hello,

Yes, you can pursue a Master of Physiotherapy (MPT) after completing a BSc Nursing , although some points should be considered:

  1. Eligibility Criteria :

    • MPT programs typically require a Bachelor's degree in Physiotherapy (BPT) . However, some institutions may accept applicants with a related healthcare background like BSc Nursing , depending on specific university policies.
  2. Bridge Courses :

    • You might need to complete bridge courses or additional prerequisites to meet entry standards, as nursing and physiotherapy have distinct foundational knowledge bases.
  3. Career Shifts :

    • Transitioning from nursing to physiotherapy may open new career opportunities in rehabilitation and sports medicine but requires adapting to a different scope of practice.
  4. Application Process :

    • Check with individual universities about their admission requirements and policies for non-BPT applicants.
  5. Skill Transfer :

    • Skills in patient care, anatomy, and clinical practice from BSc Nursing can benefit your MPT studies.

Hello there,

No, you cannot directly pursue MPT (Master of Physiotherapy) after completing a B.Sc. Nursing because MPT requires a BPT (Bachelor of Physiotherapy) as the eligibility criterion.

If you're interested in physiotherapy, you would need to first complete a BPT program before applying for MPT. Alternatively, you can explore advanced nursing courses like M.Sc. Nursing or other healthcare-related postgraduate programs.
