MA Sport and Exercise Science

Intellectually challenging and discipline-focused, the Exercise and Sport Masters programme prepares students for a career in sub-disciplines of exercise and sport at an advanced level. Underpinned by current research and practitioner expertise, an interdisciplinary perspective is encouraged. This programme is highly valued by employers and the wider exercise and sport sector with many of our graduates holding senior positions in research, Higher Education, sport and health management, sport medicine, and exercise evaluation. Opportunities for interaction across the pathways of biomechanics, physiology and psychology, coaching studies, sport development, and sports injuries are included and encouraged as appropriate. The programme is flexible in terms of structure and delivery: major and minor pathways can be chosen for a desired combination eg MA Exercise and Sport (Sport Development with Psychology).
