You will have access to state-of-the-art facilities to study performance and health aspects of Sport & Exercise Science, from the whole body to the molecular level. These include advanced exercise laboratories, metabolic investigation suites and a molecular biochemistry lab.
You will have the chance to network with a number of regional/national sporting bodies and a number of professional sporting clubs. There may be opportunities for internships (in place of a research project) for some students and we work closely with the University of Glasgow Sport to provide additional opportunities to gain real world experience where possible.
As well as our expert core staff, we engaged guest lectures who work in sport and exercise science and medicine in practice to provide interactive sessions in their specialist fields.
