Welcome to University College Dublin's final year project. A group of students were asked to research job opportunities for new graduates and to present them in a novel, useful and professional manner. This group felt that Physiopedia was the perfect way to do this. This project was part of the coursework for the final year Physiotherapy Practice module. It is a problem based learning module aimed at consolidating the professional development of physiotherapists.
