Intervention programme Upon entering the Intervention Programme after semester 1, students will deregister from PSY 1001W for the remainder of the year. The following courses/modules must be satisfactorily completed during the Intervention Programme by a student who enters the Intervention Programme after semester 1. Intervention Programme Part 1: HUB1015S Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology 1A HUB 1017S Fundamentals of Biomechanics 1A AHS1031 S Preparation for Entry- level Psychology for Health and Rehabilitation Sciences AHS 1039 S Fundamentals of Movement Sciences and Applied Physiotherapy 1A Intervention Programme Part 2: HUB 1016F Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology 1B HUB 1018 F Fundamentals of Biomechanics 1B AHS 1040 F Fundamentals of Movement Science and Applied Physiotherapy 1B At the start of semester 2 of the Intervention Programme students will de-register for Psychology PSY1001W. In addition, a student who was required to enter the Intervention Programme Part 2(having failed one or more courses in the second semester of the first year) will be required to repeat AHS 1034S Introduction to Applied Physiotherapy and may, on completion of the Intervention Programme Part2, be required to repeat other courses he/she has already passed in the second semester of the first year. |
In the final year students are expected to design, implement and write up a research project in small groups. These projects are usually part of the research programmes of the academic staff and post-graduate students.
