Clinical Integration with Saifee Hospital
SBU is uniquely positioned as an integrated academic division of Saifee Hospital, a well-established healthcare facility in Karachi. For our Doctor of Physical Therapy students, this integration is transformative for:
- Immediate Hands-on Exposure: Students begin their clinical practice and rotations from the early years of the program, moving seamlessly from lecture halls and labs directly into a live, patient-centered environment.
- Inter-professional Learning: The hospital setting allows DPT students to work alongside doctors, nurses, and other allied health professionals, fostering critical teamwork and communication skills essential for modern healthcare.
- Research Opportunities: The hospital serves as a rich environment for clinical data and patient interaction, providing the perfect platform for clinical research projects required in the DPT program.
Building on this foundation, SBU places research, clinical research, and innovation at the centre of its mission, seeking to generate new knowledge while delivering practical benefit to society.
