Bachelor in Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation

This program prepares students to assess and treat movement disorders and physical impairments arising from injury, illness, or disability. Coursework typically covers anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, neurology, orthopedics, and rehabilitation techniques, alongside supervised clinical training in hospitals and rehabilitation centers. Students learn to evaluate patient conditions, design individualized treatment and exercise programs, and apply manual therapy, electrotherapy, and other rehabilitation methods to restore function and reduce pain. The program emphasizes practical, hands-on skill development alongside a strong grounding in the biological sciences that underpin human movement. Graduates commonly work as physiotherapists in hospitals, rehabilitation clinics, sports medicine centers, and private practice, and some specialize further in areas such as pediatric physiotherapy, sports rehabilitation, or neurological rehabilitation. Others continue into graduate study or research in rehabilitation science. The profession requires patience, physical stamina, and strong interpersonal skills, since physiotherapists work closely with patients over extended periods of recovery. This program is offered at Fenerbahçe University in İstanbul, Turkey, and is taught in English, providing an internationally oriented curriculum supported by clinical placements within the local healthcare system. It runs for 4 years at the bachelor level, combining theoretical coursework with substantial clinical practice. Graduates are prepared to pursue licensure and enter the rehabilitation workforce or continue into further specialized study.
