Hi everyone,
I'm 24 and a current student transferring to UIC in order to pursue a BSc in Kinesiology and then a Masters in PT(Physical Therapy). Within that time my wife and I might move to Austria in which I would also like to continue pursuing a degree in PT. I've been doing research for the past six months on the income (Gehalt, Loan etc.) of Physical therapists in Austria but to no avail. Here in the U.S., a PT makes anywhere from $60,000-$110,000 (that all depends) but the average for a PT with a few years of experience is roughly $78,000 per year that translates to 55,603 Euros per year (conversion data as of 3/7/11). So basically this question is aimed at current physical therapists and or students of PT who know the figures can someone please tell me how much a Physical Therapist makes in Austria??? Also, is Physical Therapy a growing field in Austria? For instance, in the U.S. statistics are stating a 30% job growth in the field. Thank you in advance
