Master's dissertation

The Master's Dissertation makes up one compulsory module of 12 ECTS credits. Guided by their tutors, students work individually to conduct a complete, research project on cardio-respiratory physiotherapy, using interdisciplinary methodology. This will be used to assess integration of programme content and the competences to be acquired by each student. At the same time it will enable them to learn the research methodology from beginning to end.

The students will be assigned an academic tutor while working on the Master's dissertation, to guide their work and monitor their progress throughout.

The Master's dissertation will be assessed by a panel of lecturers on the programme and defended by the student in an open session.
