Physiotherapy

Curriculum und ECTS

The curriculum gives an exact overview of the lectures, goals, methods, the amount of time and assigned credit points.

What is the degree course “worth”? According to the regulations of the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS), credits (30 per semester i.e. 60 per academic year) are assigned to each lecture course, practical course etc. that the student undertakes. The admittance to a Master course presupposes a minimum number of ECTS credits.

With your Bachelor course "Physiotherapy" at the FH Campus Wien you receive 180 ECTS credits and thus fulfil the conditions for a continuing master course.
