Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: C680
Here's what Bangor University says about its Sport and Exercise Psychology course.
This BPS accredited degree provides an in-depth understanding of how psychological factors influence sport performance, wellbeing and exercise behaviour. It is taught by staff including chartered psychologists and sport science practitioners who work with Olympic athletes, top sports clubs, governing bodies, the military and NHS.
Sport psychology techniques that measure the connection between emotions and performance are bringing a revolution to the sports industry, as well as high-performance companies and activities that involve high pressure or physical demands. Although the idea of the integrated mind-body is not new, these emerging techniques are changing the way we understand and enhance performance.
The interdisciplinary curriculum of our sport and exercise psychology degree not only covers major areas of psychology, but also draws on related fields like biomechanics, physiology and kinesiology. A large choice of optional modules allows you to tailor your studies to your interests or career ambitions – you can even handle and study a real brain as part of a human brain guided anatomy class!
‘Placement Year’ and 'International Experience Year’ options are available for this course. You will have the opportunity to fully consider these options when you have started your course at Bangor and can make an application for a transfer onto such a pathway at the appropriate time. You can find more information about these options on our website and if you have any questions, please get in touch.
If you don’t have the required qualifications for this degree-level course or are looking to re-enter education after time away from study, then a Foundation Year Programme might be the right choice for you. Please see Sport and Exercise Science (with Foundation Year) C60F.

Bangor University open days
Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
