Course summary

Sport and Exercise Sciences prides itself on its approachable staff and varied teaching strategies, which external examiners and current students praise highly. In using a student-centred approach, we produce graduates with subject expertise and career potential. The practical and applied nature of the course is a major feature. In recent years, the sports, recreation and leisure industries have shown continuous growth. International success and the growing health agenda have ensured that investment and interest in sport and exercise in the UK continues to increase substantially. Therefore, the course is designed with two core principles in mind. Firstly, the development of knowledge, applied skills and analytical techniques in the conventional subdisciplines of sport and exercise sciences. Secondly, the orientation of studies around vocational opportunities and practices, including:- PE- Sports management- Coaching- Health promotion- Leisure- Recreation- as well as sport science support and sport and exercise sciences generally. We have a wide range of facilities including:- Performance Analysis- Muscle Function laboratories- Sports Biomechanics laboratories- Gyms- A swimming pool- A floodlit 3G MUGA pitch- Sprint track- Tennis courts and more. Foundation Year courses have been designed for students who do not have the necessary academic qualifications needed to enter directly into the first year of a degree but who have the ability and commitment to do so. Once the Foundation Year has been completed successfully, you can then go on to complete your degree.
