The Master of Osteopathy (M.Ost) degree is delivered over four years on a full-time basis, and equips students with the underpinning knowledge, practical skills and clinical experience to become highly competent patient-centred practitioners. On successful completion, students are able to register with the General Osteopathic Council (GOsC) and begin professional practice as an Osteopath.<br/><br/>As part of the course, all students complete at least 1,000 clinical hours working in our teaching clinic. This offers our student osteopaths an opportunity to work with real patients from all walks and stages of life. Our specialist clinics provide experience of specific patient groups, including babies and children, women and expectant mothers, people living with HIV, members of the transgender community and patients with sports injuries.<br/><br/>Students are often taught in small groups to ensure they benefit from staff expertise – typically, practical classes have a ratio of one tutor to every twelve students, while in clinic there is one tutor to every four students.<br/><br/>We are proud to have been awarded Gold for Student Outcomes in the Teaching Excellence Framework 2023. 95% of our students progress to employment or further study and develop highly successful careers working in private practice, within the NHS, research, education, professional sports or as specialists working with specific patient groups. 40% of osteopaths currently practicing in the UK chose to train with us*.<br/><br/>Our graduates benefit from excellent earning potential during their professional careers. The average osteopath treats 26.7 patients a week and charges an average of £52.01 per consultation, equating to an annual income of £74,645. 5% of UK osteopathy earn in excess of £100K.**<br/><br/>As an institution are driven to deliver educational excellence, to provide the next generation of health professionals for our health services, to upskill our current workforce, to improve and advance our world through research, and to improve public health.<br/><br/><br/>- General Osteopathic Council July 2024<br/><br/><br/>** Institute of Osteopathy Census 2022
