Course description

Our BSc Sport and Exercise Science degree is a multi-disciplinary course which combines theoretical knowledge with the practical application of scientific principles. Whilst studying this course, you can participate in a wide range of topics relating to sport and exercise science, developing knowledge, understanding, and practical skills in key areas of physiology, biomechanics, psychology, and nutrition. Accredited and experienced teaching staff deliver research informed teaching and practice on a range of areas, from applied athletic performance to supporting health and wellbeing.

Practical sessions within the course help you to contextualise theory, and you will have access to our purpose-built Human Performance Centre. This industry-standard facility includes bespoke physiology laboratories, a biomechanics laboratory, and specific practical spaces to support modules on gym instruction and personal training.

We want to ensure our students to become the best graduates they can be, and in addition to interactive lectures and seminars, weekly laboratory and/or practical sessions, guest speakers, web-based activities, and staff-student research projects, we encourage students to deliver sports science workshops to school groups and sports clubs, and undertake their own independent research ideas (e.g. dissertation), and offer a wide range of voluntary applied sports science roles.

Each of our students is also paired up with a member of staff as their personal tutor from the very first week of enrolment, in order to help them settle in, discuss issues or questions they have, and to help guide and develop their academic growth and extracurricular experience towards any post-degree plans they may have.

Course topic areas:
Sport science, Sport psychology, Sport Physiology, Sport and exercise science, Nutrition, Human movement, Fitness, health and exercise, Exercise science, Exercise psychology, Exercise physiology, Coaching
