Course description

Work with the next generation of student athletes, improving their performance through sports and exercise science. Learn in our dedicated Human Performance and Biomechanics Laboratories, which are kitted out with technology used by Premier League and NFL teams.

You’ll focus on practical, work-based learning, making the most of our professional sports campus as you understand the science behind the mechanics of movement, sports psychology, health and exercise. Take what you learn in the classroom and apply it to improving the physical and psychological qualities of our student athletes.

We’ll introduce you to the core disciplines of biomechanics, physiology, and psychology. You will also explore a wide range of related disciplines to give you the opportunity to tailor your studies to suit your career interests. This can include nutrition, performance analysis, health and exercise, as well as strength and conditioning and injury.

Learn from lecturers who are industry professionals and research active. You could also have the chance to work alongside one of our competing sports teams, with elite-level athletes on campus, exercisers or children in local schools.

When you have passion, you're far more likely to achieve your goals – especially when you study that passion in a place that shares it.

We're home to top-level coaches, sport and exercise scientists, nutritionists, conditioners, medics and athletes, across our Sports Academy programmes and student-led teams. Our students graduate with valuable skills to succeed in a range of different careers.
