Course Overview

This course has been designed for practicing and newly qualified podiatrists who wish to further their careers by expanding their knowledge and skills in the specialist areas within the profession. It provides the opportunity for you to focus on podiatric specialisms including musculoskeletal or management of long-term conditions, as well as enhance your core skills of assessment, diagnosis, and management. You will undertake a clinical practice module, enabling you to develop your clinical practice in the Universitys podiatry clinic and out in practice on a 17-week placement. You will be taught by academics who are all practicing clinicians within podiatric practice and researchers in their area of expertise. The course will assist you to advance your specialist skills through options modules including injection therapy, independent prescribing, diagnostic imaging, forensic podiatry, wound care, and tissue viability. Huddersfield is the only university offering a full-time Master's course in podiatry with a placement in musculoskeletal (MSK) or long-term conditions.
