Physiotherapy (extra-occupational) B.Sc.
Training or extra-occupational Bachelor of Science programme
For a long time, physiotherapy was a traditional training profession. Most of the more than 100,000 physiotherapists in Germany did not study at a university, but were trained at a vocational college. FH Aachen is one of the first universities in Germany to offer physiotherapy as a dual Bachelor's degree programme in two variants, together with the Faculty of Medicine at RWTH Aachen University and in cooperation with the University Hospital Aachen (UKA): Firstly, extra-occupational with training as a physiotherapist at the UKA's School of Physiotherapy and secondly, as an extra-occupational variant for physiotherapists who have already completed their state examination.
The advantages are great: with a university certificate in your pocket, you can climb the career ladder much more easily. There are also no more hurdles when changing jobs abroad, as a degree is common in many countries and is therefore a standard requirement for applications. However, research is particularly important: only those who learn scientific work at university can carry out well-founded research work. And this is urgently needed in physiotherapy.
