Overview

Why study this program?

The Sport and Exercise Nutrition program at Middlesex University focuses on professional practice and is underpinned by solid scientific and technical foundations. Work placements and practical training are integrated into the course, equipping you with significant experience in a professional setting.

You will learn from some of the UK’s most experienced sports nutritionists, whilst regularly treating elite athletes and sports teams. In our partnership with Saracens Rugby Club, you’ll have access to the fantastic resources at StoneX Stadium, including the brand new £23 million redevelopment project of the West Stand which offers state-of-the-art facilities as a top educational and high performance centre for teaching and research excellence. With some of the most advanced equipment in the UK, you will be able to utilise the new specialist spaces, simulation suites, specialist labs, plus much more.

The course enables you to:

Become eligible to apply for graduate registration with the UK Sports and Exercise Nutrition Register (SENr).
Develop your professional skills and practical experience in our cutting-edge sport science labs (access to specialist facilities may be restricted due to the COVID-19 pandemic and social distancing requirements, but alternative methods of learning will be available).
Study the advanced science behind performance nutrition.
Undertake an industry placement as part of your studies, either at your current workplace or somewhere we will help you find.
Make the most of our links by working with professional sports teams.

As a student of this course you'll receive a free electronic textbook for every module.

Careers

At the end of the degree you will have completed 150 hours of professional practice and have the necessary knowledge and experience to apply to the graduate SENr – a qualification which will enable you to take the next step in your career.

You will be well placed to work in elite and professional sport, for national and international sports teams and organisations. Numerous private gyms, consultancies and other sport and exercise organisations also demand the expertise of specialist nutritionists, and there is significant space to work as a self-employed nutritional consultant.
