Overview
Sport and Exercise Science from Edge Hill University will also be highly relevant for those working in community and professional sport, including coaches, current and former athletes, and sports support staff. A distinguishing feature of the course is its applied and multidisciplinary approach, which provides a greater opportunity to examine factors affecting performance in real-world settings. You will learn using contemporary laboratory equipment, gain experience of professional practice, and hone transferable skills that support career development and enhance your employability. The curriculum combines both core and optional modules. This allows you to combine knowledge, understanding and practical techniques in the application of sport and exercise science with the opportunity to explore strength and conditioning, or mental health awareness in community or elite sport.
