BSc (Hons) in Complementary Healthcare Top-up Year

... United Kingdom
... Cardiff Metropolitan University

Course Overview

An important element of this top-up year is the development of professional skills and the broadening of experience provided by the work-based learning modules.

The placement element offers the opportunity to work in a range of environments, several of them in clinical settings, whilst the university clinic allows students to experience all aspects of running a multi-disciplinary clinic.

These experiences mean that our graduates can compete very favourably in the job market. Former students have been offered employment as a result of their placement or to set up their own clinics offering employment to other graduates, whilst others have established themselves as sole trader therapists.

There is also the opportunity to continue your studies to the Master’s level and beyond via, for example, the Masters in Research Methods (MRes) programme at Cardiff Met. This allows students to extend their research project on an aspect of complementary healthcare.

General Eligibility

Minimum three A levels. No specific subjects are required. Welsh Baccalaureate – Advanced Skills Challenge Certificate is considered a third subject.

Part Time Work Details

20 Hours of Work permit weekly for international students.

Language Requirement

  • Academic IELTS 6.0 overall with at least 5.5 in all elements, or equivalent.
