What will I learn?

Enhance your practice at a global top 100 (QS World University Rankings 2024) university.

Gain an in-depth understanding of a patient’s journey from pre-amputation to prosthetic rehabilitation, exploring both the physical and psychological aspects of patient care.

This holistic framework is delivered by healthcare experts whose research is at the leading edge of developments in the global field of amputation and prosthetics, and looks at the different views and perspectives of a patient, their families, carers, and clinicians.

The programme is aimed at multidisciplinary healthcare professionals who either already work, or would like to work, in this area.

Our Amputee Rehabilitation and Prosthetic Use module is endorsed by the British Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Amputee Rehabilitation (BACPAR).

For the Contemporary Issues in Limb Loss module, you’ll need to write a 3,000-word assignment on a key issue discussed in the module. For the Amputee Rehabilitation and Prosthetic Use module, you’ll need to complete a formative assignment and a summative assessment. The summative assessment, made up of 2 components, is marked and contributes to the final module mark. You'll need to achieve a pass of at least 50% in both components. We will not mark the formative assessment, and it does not contribute to your overall module mark. The goal of the formative assignment is to provide you with feedback and help you identify strengths and weaknesses in your work. The formative assignment has been designed to contain elements that are important for the summative (marked assessment) to help you improve your learning.
