BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science
Course Overview
The BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science degree is a multidisciplinary course that will equip students with the knowledge and skills required for a career in the sport and exercise science industry. The course will provide students with an understanding of the scientific principles that underpin human performance and the ability to apply this knowledge to improve sport and exercise performance, health, and wellbeing. Students will study a range of topics, including anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, psychology, and nutrition. The course will also focus on the practical application of these principles through laboratory work, fieldwork, and work experience.
The course is designed to provide students with a strong foundation in the key areas of sport and exercise science, with the option to specialise in a particular area in the final year of study. Students will also have the opportunity to gain practical experience through work placements, where they will be able to apply their knowledge in a real-world setting.
