Career prospects

Where your degree can take you

With your bachelor’s degree, you have successfully completed the first stage on your way to becoming an academically trained physiotherapist.

The subsequent master’s programme will lead you to the goal of professional admission as a recognised physiotherapist. The perfect combination of bachelor’s and master’s studies opens up a wide range of opportunities for you.

Fields of activity

Where physiotherapy graduates work

To practice as a physiotherapist, you must have completed a Master in Physiotherapy. Nevertheless, the health and social sector offers a wide range of job opportunities for which the knowledge you acquired with your Bachelor in Physiotherapy is highly valued.

Potential employers where a licence as physiotherapist is not mandatory are:

  • Health offices and authorities
  • Health insurance companies
  • Healthcare suppliers
  • Medical publishers
  • International companies
  • Sports clubs and associations
  • Science and research

Become a licensed Physiotherapist

To be able to practise physiotherapy, you need a professional licence.

You will receive your professional licence from the country in which you have acquired your qualification. In your case, as a student at LUNEX this means: Luxembourg. Your qualification can subsequently be validated in other countries. The prerequisites for the professional licence or validation may vary according to country.
