Overview

You will focus on the scientific principles of the strength and conditioning process, their practical application and assessment using both laboratory and field-based measurement systems.

In addition, you will explore the practical application of biomechanical and physiological concepts, contemporary performance analysis and coaching techniques, as well as applied data and research skills.

Throughout the Strength and Conditioning degree at University of Chichester, you will study both modules that will give you the theoretical foundations upon which you will apply practical skills through placement opportunities.

The degree will culminate in a final assessed project, either in the form of a research dissertation, or a supervised experience portfolio. The supervised experience portfolio option enables you to experience a more vocational rather than research-based assessment.
