    Does whether you've done physiotherapy as an undergraduate degree or a masters affect employment prospects/reputation?

    Being a BSc physio student, from this perspective I haven't noticed a huge difference. As long as the course is recognised by the ISCP, you should have no problem with job prospects as a basic-grade physio in a hospital/community or a private physiotherapy clinic. However, I heard tell that you have to have a masters to be a senior in the hospital, but how true that is I honestly don't know. Bottom line, you can be a very successful physio with just a BSc, and even more successful if you do a PhD or Master's, of which there are plenty of opportunities to do
