The University of Hertfordshire offers a PhD in Physiotherapy which can be undertaken on a full or part time basis with experienced and internationally renowned staff. Our emphasis is on research in the broad Musculoskeletal area though this does not exclude other research fields.

We recognise that students require support during their time with us. Successful students will have the opportunity to undertake non credit bearing modules with the Researcher Development Programme (RDP) which offers over 100 courses and events that support research students. Support is provided via access to the learning resource centre, doctoral college and academic support.
