MPT

The primary difference between BPT course and MPT course lies in the level of education and specialization. BPT course is an UG degree that provides foundational knowledge and training in physiotherapy, focusing on general rehabilitation, exercise therapy, and patient care for various conditions. 

On the other hand, MPT is a PG degree that allows students to specialize in specific areas of physiotherapy, such as sports physiotherapy, orthopedic physiotherapy, neurology, or pediatrics. MPT offers advanced knowledge, more in-depth clinical exposure, and research opportunities, preparing graduates for specialised roles in the field, including teaching, research, or higher-level clinical positions.
