Overview

Why study Applied Strength and Conditioning?

The demand for applied strength and conditioning professionals has grown significantly over the past decade. As performance sport has become more professional, coaches are now expected to hold recognised qualifications.
The MSc Applied Strength and Conditioning programme from UWE Bristol (University of the West of England) meets this demand. It's informed by the professional competencies outlined by organisations such as the UK Strength and Conditioning Association (UKSCA) and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA).
You'll gain practitioner-led skills, evidence-based approaches and authentic applied experiences within real performance environments. This will prepare you to work in performance sport and applied settings, where you'll help athletes return to play, optimise performance, and manage training loads safely and effectively.
