    PhD Programs in Physiotherapy

    Physiotherapy is the study of movement. Students of physiotherapy learn to advise, educate and rehabilitate people who have suffered injuries or are recovering from surgery. Physiotherapists may also help people with chronic or neurological issues that affect their movement to aid in increasing their mobility and comfort.

    The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
