If you have a passion for sport and a desire to develop an academic understanding of the factors that underpin all areas of sports performance, this course is for you. Students who have a keen interest in sport science will thrive as they get the opportunity to explore the scientific factors that optimise sporting performance, drawing upon their experience and subject knowledge in Physics and Biology. Those who are intrigued by sports psychology, nutrition, training and contemporary issues will be certain to find themselves engaged in debate and topical conversations linked to the sporting world and these subject areas. It is a dynamic, academically challenging and extremely engaging course that will give you a breadth of skills and knowledge.
