Course Overview

To work in sport, you need to understand how the human body works.

Physiology, biomechanics, psychology and nutrition – you’ll cover it all. You’ll also have the opportunity to become a qualified Level 3 Personal Trainer by taking an optional module.

A group of students recently visited St. George’s Park, home of the FA, to experience how the content of their degree programmes is used in an applied environment.

Sports and Exercise Science uses scientific principles and techniques to enable people, from Premier League footballers to those using the gym once a week, to perform to their optimum performance level.

This course opens up many careers, from coaching and personal training to going into teacher training. You could also work on exercise referral programmes within clinical environments, rehabilitation programmes, corporate fitness initiatives or human science research.

Make best use of all the opportunities we’ll give you for vocational training courses through Sports Coach UK and national sport governing bodies. The Academy of Sport also runs a Sports Ambassador Scheme, where students can volunteer or be employed by the University to deliver sports coaching, fitness and mentoring sessions across London.

Recent graduates have gone onto jobs such as cardiac rehabilitation physiologist, exercise therapist, sport science consultant, childhood obesity programme coordinator, technical representative for physiological/mechanical analysis equipment, and international sales manager for exercise science equipment.
