Course summary

We are pleased to confirm that Writtle University College and ARU (Anglia Ruskin University) are joining together. The merger will happen during the 23/24 academic year. Writtle's full range of Higher and Further Education courses will continue to be delivered on site at the Writtle campus, enhanced by resources available at nearby ARU. If you are starting your course in September 2024, your degree will be awarded by ARU. Find out more about ARU, including our recent Gold rating in the Teaching Excellence Framework, at www.aru.ac.ukThis award is aimed at those individuals who wish to develop their interest in sport science with a robust grounding in scientific principles relevant to the coaching industry. Sport can be a complex environment, with athletes needing support to address the way in which the athlete is managed to maximise performance, when required, in a range of very diverse environments.This approach to sport science support may vary considerably with influencing factors such as gender, ability, age, location, health, and availability of professional services. The branches of support are many and varied, covering elements such as nutrition, health and disease, and the influence of other aspects such as behaviour and ethics.This course aims to provide the student with a thorough understanding of possible contributors to produce performance, from a micro- to macro-level – such understanding enabling the individual to contribute positively to athletic performance. Developing a thorough scientific understanding, combined with the ability to apply that knowledge practically, will enable the individual to take a proactive role in the industry following graduation. Writtle’s approach of ‘science into practice’ is never more evident than in this course and the development of excellent communication skills will be a key graduate attribute for students who have undertaken this award.
