Welcome to the Division of Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy is not only one of the most popular courses at Nottingham, but Nottingham is possibly the most popular place to study physiotherapy in the UK. We believe that this popularity is based on our reputation for providing education within a supportive and nurturing environment, which not only develops the individual, but produces first class physiotherapists.


Nottingham University is also a thriving research environment for students. In the Division of Physiotherapy Education, our research aims to increase knowledge about the efficacy of physiotherapy interventions for people with neurological and musculoskeletal conditions and to increase understanding of the causes and characteristics of their movement deficits.

Student fees and finance for 2012/13

Students on pre-registration physiotherapy courses (funded by the NHS and leading to registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council) will usually have their tuition fees paid in full and receive financial support in the form of a bursary and access to a student loan.

The Department of Health has indicated that a new package of financial support will take effect from September 2012 and only apply to students who begin training on or after this date.

Students will receive a small non-means tested grant of £1,000, a means tested bursary of up to £4,395 and a reduced rate non-means tested loan of up to £2,324. Different rates of means tested bursary and loan will apply according to where a student lives or studies. More information can be found here.

For information about fees and finance for other programmes across the University please visit the Student Fees and Finance website.
