Consistent with this, there are two pathways in our Masters course. The first pathway focuses on elite performance and requires you to study applied physiology and/or applied biomechanics. The second pathway (Physical Activity, Health and Well-being) allows students to develop their knowledge and understanding of health. The topic of your Masters research project will reflect the pathway that you have chosen.

Compared to undergraduate studies, this Masters has more emphasis on self-directed lab work, data collection and analysis. We encourage you to undertake real-world internships and build up experience with external clients and sports clubs. This practical experience will complement the rigorous research elements of the course.

By the end of the course you will have a portfolio of work, feedback from clients/employers, and a record of practical and academic projects. This will give you a clear advantage when it comes to applying for jobs.

If you prefer, a part-time MSc Sport and Exercise Sciences is also available.
