Based on the modules "Fundamentals of Research Methods in Physiotherapy Science" and "Advanced Research Methods in Physiotherapy Science", students implement a research or development project within the framework of this module. This usually takes place in cooperation with one or more institutions. The projects deal with questions that are developed in cooperation with university lecturers or in cooperation with local health care institutions. The project is accompanied by a seminar at the university. The students use their previously acquired knowledge to work on the identified questions in a scientifically sound manner. In accordance with the competence profile of the BSc Physiotherapy degree programme, they are continuously advised and accompanied by university lecturers.
