Why did you choose Otago Physio?

I was inspired to pursue my PhD after attending the Physiotherapy New Zealand conference held in Dunedin in 2018. As a member of staff of the school of Physiotherapy I have been encouraged to believe that distance is no barrier work or study. I can continue to live and work in Hawkes Bay while studying a topic of my choice. Otago university's services and support for distance students are excellent. The quality of research supervision within the School of Physiotherapy is world class with the relationships to host projects crossing traditional boundaries.

Best things about study

Having an opportunity to utilise the resources of the University to answer pressing questions for Physiotherapy services in New Zealand, and building my understanding of research.
