We live in an exciting time for sports and fitness. It’s a growing global industry that provides career opportunities the world over, peopled by passionate, dedicated experts who want to help us change our relationships with our bodies and our health. When you study for a Sports and Exercise Science BSc at UA92, you’ll deepen your understanding of the key issues in sport. You’ll develop your own fitness, and learn about the science that underpins our physical ability.
Your UA92 degree goes far beyond the traditional academic experience.
Each academic year, in addition to your four subject modules, you’ll study an extra credit-bearing module, which focuses entirely on character and personal development. You’ll get to take on a real-life project, based on a live scenario, set by one of our industry partners.
You’ll experience first-hand the current issues facing the industry, get the opportunity to apply your subject knowledge, challenge your perspectives, step outside your comfort zone and build key employability skills to prepare you for your future career.
These experiences are instrumental in developing transferable skills and key competencies such as leadership, resilience and well-being, communication, problem-solving and team-working. To help you track your progress and further refine your developing skill-set, you’ll meet regularly with your own personal development coach throughout years 1 & 2.
