About Department of Physiotherapy Technologies
The Department of Physiotherapy Techniques was established at Al-Zahraa University (PBUH) for Women in 2018. Following exploratory visits conducted by physiotherapy specialists, and due to the shortage of female professionals in this field along with the increasing number of muscular injuries and fractures that cause limited or loss of movement requiring physiotherapy and rehabilitation, the specialized committee decided to open the Department of Physiotherapy Techniques.
The department has been supported with all necessary resources to become distinguished in its laboratories and classrooms. It aims to graduate highly qualified female professionals capable of providing practical healthcare services in hospitals in the field of physiotherapy.
The duration of study in this department is four years.
