Course summary
Psychology in Sport, Health and Exercise is an area of growing interest, particularly in the world of professional sport. By studying the link between the mind and the body, we can understand things like motivation and determination, and the effect that physical activity has on the brain. It is the ideal course for students interested in a career in the psychology of sport, exercise and physical activity. This course is jointly delivered two by Divisions: Psychology and Sport, Health and Exercise Sciences. It is accredited by the British Psychological Society. The Division of Psychology offers a firm foundation in psychology, including cognitive, developmental, and biological psychology. You will learn how to do quantitative and qualitative research to support experiments you may carry out for your dissertation.Careers and your futureWith a 2:2 grade or higher youll be eligible to apply for graduate membership of the British Psychological Society (BPS). This is a prerequisite for many BPS accredited postgraduate training courses. It is also required for entry to all accredited Stage 2 Doctoral programmes as part of the route to becoming a Chartered Psychologist. So this course could be your next step on the way to becoming a psychologist, be it in sport and exercise or in other fields.Youll also have the skills and expertise for a wide range of other careers. For instance you may wish to become a university lecturer, a consultant in elite sport or maybe lead a national sport psychology service for an organisation such as the English Institute of Sport. Perhaps you would prefer to work for the local authority, driving sport development policies or helping to deliver corporate healthcare solutions for organisations such as Nuffield Health. Plus, with a Brunel Psychology degree, you can gain experience in the workplace with a year-long placement or two six-month placements in different settings.
