Master of Science - Podiatry (Pre-Registration)

The Podiatry (Pre-Registration) MSc is aimed at graduates wishing to gain both a professional and academic qualification and start a career in this challenging and highly rewarding field.

In this accelerated course, students are offered a balance of theory and practice experience. They will graduate as a qualified podiatrist who are competent in their clinical skills and able to use contemporary clinical evidence to inform their practice.

The University of Brighton developed and awarded the first degrees in podiatry in the UK and have been recognised by podiatry's professional bodies for the standard of their teaching. Students will have access to excellent facilities including Brighton's own podiatry clinic.

During the course students will accumulate 1,000 hours of clinical practice, giving them an essential experience of working with NHS patients and managing their own caseload before qualifying as a podiatrist.

Students will also have the opportunity to experience podiatry abroad with an optional short placement in Malta.

Brighton's expert lecturers are all active members of the Royal College of Podiatry, ensuring that both the team and the curriculum stay up to date with podiatry policy and practice.

Their high quality teaching and research are renowned in the sector, and have an applied focus. They have established strong links with specialist practice educators to ensure the provision of support and guidance both within the university and in practice.
