The lecturing staff on the Degree in International Physiotherapy at the School of New Interactive Technologies (ENTI-UB) and the University School of Health and Sport (EUSES-UdG) is characterised by its specialisation and its strong focus on teaching. Most of the tutors hold doctorates from prestigious universities around the world and have excellent teaching skills, as well as wide-ranging experience in the academic and medical fields. They are also committed to passing on values, to educational excellence and to their own ongoing training, which allows them to stay up to date with the latest advances in their field.
