Supporting Learning Across Physiotherapy Education
The academic structure of Vijaya Krishna College of Physiotherapy is designed to support the different areas of learning required for Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT) education. Through foundational sciences, physiotherapy subjects, practical learning and clinical education, students are gradually introduced to the knowledge and skills required for professional practice.
As the college begins its academic journey in 2026, the academic departments will work together to create an organised, student-focused learning environment.
Academic Areas That Shape a Physiotherapy Student
The BPT programme brings together different academic areas that contribute to the overall development of a physiotherapy student.
Basic & Medical Sciences
Students develop a strong foundation in subjects related to the structure and functioning of the human body and the basic concepts required for healthcare education.
Focus: Anatomy • Physiology • Basic Medical Sciences
Physiotherapy Sciences
This area focuses on the fundamental principles and concepts of physiotherapy, helping students understand assessment, movement, therapeutic approaches and rehabilitation.
Focus: Physiotherapy Principles • Assessment • Therapeutic Approaches
Exercise & Rehabilitation
Students learn about exercise-based approaches and rehabilitation principles that form an important part of physiotherapy practice.
Focus: Therapeutic Exercise • Movement • Rehabilitation
Clinical & Professional Learning
Clinical learning helps students understand the application of academic and practical knowledge in healthcare environments while developing professional behaviour and patient-care skills.
Focus: Clinical Practice • Patient Care • Professional Development
Connecting Sciences with Physiotherapy and Practical Application
Physiotherapy education requires knowledge from several related areas to come together. Our academic approach encourages students to connect fundamental sciences with physiotherapy concepts and practical application.
Understand the Science
Learn Physiotherapy Concepts
Develop Practical Skills
Gain Clinical Understanding
Prepare for Professional Practice
This integrated approach helps students develop a broader understanding of physiotherapy rather than viewing individual subjects in isolation.
Guidance Through Classroom, Practical and Professional Development
Our academic departments will be supported by faculty members who guide students through classroom education, practical sessions, academic activities and professional development.
Faculty members play an important role in helping students understand concepts, clarify questions, develop practical understanding and progressively build confidence throughout their BPT journey.
An Academic Structure Growing with the College
As Vijaya Krishna College of Physiotherapy grows, the academic structure and learning resources will continue to develop in accordance with the requirements of the BPT programme and applicable academic regulations.
Detailed information about individual departments, faculty members, subjects and academic responsibilities will be updated on this page as the official academic structure is finalised.
Learn • Understand • Practise • Progress
A Strong Foundation for Skilled Physiotherapy Professionals
Our academic departments work towards one common objective — creating a strong foundation for students to develop into knowledgeable, skilled and responsible physiotherapy professionals.
