Program Overview
The core modules of our MSc awards focus on enhancing students' awareness of the professional issues and research applications associated with being a sport and exercise scientist. The combination of professional and research training meets the ultimate aims of many of our students in the context of securing future, graduate employment.
Option modules for the generic Sport and Exercise and specialist pathways allow students to tailor their programme based on personal interests within the respective disciplines and the possibility of selecting modules leading to a final MSc award with named pathways allows for recognition of specialities within the programme. Students may alternatively maintain a breadth in their areas of study by combining multiple discipline-based option modules. Students should be aware of the possibility that, experiences and projects that form the basis of work placements and internships can result in academic credit through the completion of the widely available Independent Study module.
