YOUR JOINING INSTRUCTIONS
Welcome to Buckinghamshire New University! We are looking forward to you joining our MSc Physiotherapy (pre-registration) course. At BNU we pride ourselves on the support we offer our students to succeed in their academic learning and on creating graduates ready for employment. This pack has been created by the BNU Welcome Team and your course leader, Dr Yetunde Dairo, to provide you with information that you will need for a successful start at BNU. Please read it carefully before you join us. Your teaching will begin week commencing 20th September 2021 and your timetable will be provided to you online closer to your start date. Our BNU Welcome Week is also running from Monday 20th September to Friday 24th September 2021 at our High Wycombe Campus and we are currently putting together a detailed timetable of activities which we will share with you closer to your start date. In the meantime, as further plans are put into place regarding how you will join BNU and your Welcome activity we will add details to the Welcome area of our website. Please check the site regularly to ensure you have the most up-to-date information available. ABOUT YOUR COURSE Dear Physiotherapist in the Making, We are looking forward to welcoming you to the new MSc Physiotherapy (Pre-registration) Programme here at BNU. We have put together some information which you may find useful to think about prior to attending in September 2021. 1. How you will learn: Our Physiotherapy MSc Programme is a new and exciting physiotherapy course which we are extremely proud to offer! It is a Blended Learning course – a mix of online content and face to face classes. The face to face classes will enable you to understand and apply the online knowledge clinically, help you develop your practical and handling skills to ensure you are ready and prepared before you go out on clinical placements in the second year. The online content and learning will support all face to face classes. The online component allows you more flexibility and convenience for learning. Please note that you will need to complete the online learning component of each lesson alongside the face to face sessions. We will, of course, help you and support you with this!
2. Where you will learn: Most of your learning will take place in our brand-new, purpose-built therapy rooms on the 3rd floor of the South Wing at our High Wycombe campus. There will be practical sessions in the simulation suites in our Wycombe campus in your first year and in the summer we use simulation suites at our Aylesbury campus, which has a modern, fully furnished assisted living flat. You will also have access to the University’s performance and physiology labs, and sports and wellbeing clinic rooms – all based in our vibrant Wycombe campus.
An indicative syllabus for semester 1 is attached to this letter.
3. What you will wear:
a. This is a practical course and there is a key hands-on element. This means that you will want to come to
taught sessions with appropriate clothing, for example shorts if we are examining the hip. You will be given prior notice for this.
b. Uniforms will be required for clinical placements. The University will supply you with two white tops for your placement. You can purchase a range of physiotherapy uniforms from the Grahame Gardner services and they also provide chartered society of physiotherapy branded products or the option to embroider or monogram your uniform.
Please visit: https://www.grahamegardner.co.uk/professions/physiotherapy.html to view the range.
4. Useful Kit:
a. A tablet or laptop with good memory capability to allow for anatomy Apps and online access will be useful.
b. A stethoscope – we recommend Littmann or any other brand of similar quality.
5. Attendance:
a. Due to the professional nature of this course, maximal attendance is required. Because face to face sessions are limited, every effort should be made to attend. Being involved in online forums and contributing to group discussion is essential for your learning and the group as a whole.
b. Due to the blended learning nature of the course, online learning is mandatory. You will need to engage with online learning prior to attending face to face lectures, practical sessions, seminars and tutorials. You will be signposted towards these as the course progresses.
6. The Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP): You may find it useful to have a look at the benefits of joining the CSP as a student. Please see https://www.csp.org.uk/ for more information. A CSP representative will visit you in the first semester to discuss student membership with you. We are very much looking forward to meeting you properly when you start in September 2021. We hope you enjoy the rest of your summer and arrive on the 20th of September ready to begin the learning journey towards your new career as a Physiotherapist! Best Wishes,
Dr Yetunde Dairo and the Physiotherapy programme team
