In this longitudinal cohort study we will have university students from 8 different countries participate in an annual survey, until graduation aimed to evaluate the prevalence, risk factors and prognostic indicators of musculoskeletal conditions. We will also compare results across disciplines of study (e.g. health care and non health care) and countries (developed vs developing countries, public vs private settings).
