Hi,
Members do not see these Ads. Sign Up.
I'm new on Podiatry Arena, only just signed up but have been reading regularly as a guest before deciding to take the plunge.
I signed up primarily because I have a question that I haven't been able to find a real answer to, that question being... what universities in the south of the UK are good for podiatry? More specifically, Southampton or Brighton?
Firstly I know based on research that all degrees for podiatry have to meet the same standards and criteria for the HPC etc. However, each university will inevitably have its own teaching styles, emphasis on interest areas and approach to practical skills and clinical teaching (I'm guessing this is the case anyway).
Ultimately, I'm between both Southampton and Eastbourne and ideally would like to study at one of these institutions. The only problem is that whilst information on the podiatry course at Brighton has been relatively easy to uncover, the same cannot be said for Southampton.
The only information I have been able to gleam, primarily from PodArena is that Southampton is very much focused upon research. Is there anybody here that perhaps studied at Southampton, and as such can possibly give me an idea to how the podiatry degree course is taught?
To give people here some background, I'm quite academic and really enjoy learning the theory side of subjects. Despite this I also enjoy being practical and hands on. With regards to a university I guess I'm looking for somewhere with a balance between the two, one that challenges its students both academically and practically. I'm sure realistically all podiatry degrees (and vocational degrees for that matter) do this, it's just obviously university choices are important and I want to make a choice that's right based on both my future goals and learning style.
Sorry for the novel, brevity is not my strong suit. If anyone can help I would truly appreciate it. Thanks in advance from a 19 year old (hopeful) pod student to be.
Ash :D
