Department of
Orthopaedics Physiotherapy

The Department of Orthopaedics Physiotherapy at SGT University is a centre of excellence focused on the prevention, assessment, and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal and orthopaedic conditions. The department offers a dynamic and integrated curriculum that balances scientific knowledge, clinical skills, and practical application.
The department strives to develop physiotherapists with strong clinical acumen, research aptitude, and ethical integrity, who can deliver optimal care across all age groups experiencing orthopaedic disorders.
Students are trained in state-of-the-art labs with advanced diagnostic and therapeutic tools, including manual therapy equipment, biomechanics software, and strength assessment technologies. Emphasis is placed on evidence-based practice, multidisciplinary collaboration, and patient-centric rehabilitation planning.
The department emphasizes simulation-based learning using standardized patient scenarios, virtual anatomy tools, joint mobilization models, and injury simulation cases to train students in real-world clinical decision-making. Students are immersed in a variety of learning methodologies, including flipped classrooms, problem-based learning (PBL), case-based learning, peer-teaching sessions, and inter-professional education.
The department emphasizes hands-on clinical training in the rehabilitation of conditions such as fractures, ligament injuries, post-operative joint replacements, spinal dysfunctions, sports injuries, and age-related musculoskeletal disorders. Training is conducted in well-equipped musculoskeletal rehabilitation labs and outpatient clinics, guided by expert faculty.
