The master's degree is conferred by virtue of a dissertation (FTP 890), on an approved topic based on research.

Subject to the stipulations of the General Regulations, the BPhysT degree or an equivalent qualification is required as well as registration as a physiotherapist with the Health Professions Council of South Africa.

  2. Candidates will be required to provide proof of having successfully completed applicable postgraduate modules in clinical fields of specialisation, e.g. Orthopaedic Manual Therapy 1, before the MPhysT degree will be conferred.
  3. During the MPhysT studies, students must participate in formal departmental instruction and/or research programmes of at least 60 hours per year.
  4. Postgraduate modules for all the fields of specialisation for the MPhysT degree with coursework, are offered on a biennial basis, if at least five applicants apply for admission to a particular field of specialisation.
