Punjab University Launches Physiotherapy Course for 2025

Punjabi University, Patiala, is all set to launch its much-anticipated physiotherapy course starting in the academic session of 2025. This initiative comes as part of the university’s broader commitment to aligning its programs with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which emphasizes skill-based learning, industry readiness, and global employability. With the rise in demand for qualified physiotherapists in India and abroad, the university’s decision to introduce this course comes at a crucial time.

About the New Physiotherapy Course

The flagship offering is the Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT), a four and a half year program that includes six months of mandatory clinical internship. The course is structured to give students a comprehensive understanding of human anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, exercise therapy, electrotherapy, neurology, orthopedics, and community-based rehabilitation. It also includes training in modern physiotherapy practices and patient management protocols to ensure graduates are fully prepared to meet real-world clinical challenges.

There are also plans to introduce a Master of Physiotherapy (MPT) program in the coming academic years. While the MPT is not currently offered, university officials have indicated that it is part of the department’s long-term development plan.

Punjabi University is a public government university, recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC), ensuring that the course is affordable and backed by national standards.

Unique Benefits of the Program

  • Integrated Clinical Training: Hands-on exposure through affiliations with multispecialty hospitals.
  • State-of-the-Art Labs: Access to anatomy and biomechanics labs equipped with the latest tools.
  • Research Opportunities: Students are encouraged to conduct independent research and participate in academic conferences.
  • Soft Skill & Communication Training: Preparing students for both domestic and international patient care.
  • Interdisciplinary Approach: Collaboration with other medical and health sciences departments.

Seats, Eligibility & Entrance Exam

  • Number of Seats: The BPT program will initially offer 50 seats.
  • Eligibility: Students must have completed 10+2 with Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (PCB) with at least 50% aggregate marks from a recognized board.
  • Entrance Exam Requirement: NEET is not mandatory for this program. Punjabi University will conduct its own entrance test or rely on a merit-based system using 10+2 board marks.
  • Cutoff System: Admissions will be merit-based. The university will publish a cutoff list after considering board exam results. Preference will be given to candidates with higher PCB scores.

Eligibility for Candidates Outside Punjab

Yes, students from other Indian states are fully eligible to apply for the BPT program at Punjabi University. There is no state domicile restriction. However, all candidates will be required to fulfill the same academic eligibility criteria.

Required Documents:

For Punjab Domicile Candidates:

  • 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates
  • Punjab domicile certificate
  • Recent passport-sized photograph
  • Valid government-issued ID proof (Aadhaar, etc.)

For Candidates from Other States:

  • 10th and 12th mark sheets and certificates
  • State domicile certificate from their respective state
  • Migration certificate (to be submitted at time of admission)
  • Recent passport-sized photograph

All documents must be uploaded online during the application process. Originals will be verified during counseling/admission.

Fee Structure

The proposed annual tuition fee for the BPT course is approximately INR 45,000 to 55,000 per year, making it one of the most affordable government-run physiotherapy programs in the region. Additional charges may include lab fees, examination fees, and university development funds.

  1. Visit the Punjabi University Admissions Portal: pupadmissions.ac.in

  3. Upload required documents including 10+2 mark sheets, ID proof, and passport-sized photograph.
  4. Pay the application fee online.

Career Opportunities After Graduation

Graduates can work in:

  • Government and private hospitals
  • Orthopedic and neuro-rehabilitation centers
  • Sports teams and fitness centers
  • Community health NGOs
  • Start their own physiotherapy clinics

Additionally, students can opt for international licensure exams (e.g., NPTE for the U.S. or HCPC for the U.K.) to expand their global career prospects.

Lesser-Known Features Students Should Know

  • Skill-Embedded Curriculum: Includes workshops on CPR, first aid, and taping techniques.
  • Entrepreneurship Training: Modules on how to start and manage your own physiotherapy clinic.
  • English Language Support: Special communication classes for students aiming for international careers.
  • Digital Case Study Repository: Access to a university-curated database of anonymized patient cases for clinical reasoning practice.
  • Free Licensure Prep: The university plans to offer coaching support for students attempting global licensing exams.

Final Thoughts

This new physiotherapy program at Punjabi University is more than just a degree—it’s a launchpad for a dynamic, impactful healthcare career. With its skill-centric syllabus, clinical immersion, and future plans for postgraduate offerings like the MPT, the university is poised to become a major player in allied health sciences education.
