Sport and exercise science involves the practical application of scientific principles from different disciplines (physiology, psychology, biomechanics, motor learning and sociology) to improve sports performance and the health and wellbeing of society.
This degree provides the skills you need for a career in sports performance and sports coaching. It also represents an excellent stepping stone if you want to become a teacher. By learning how sport and exercise methods can improve health outcomes in society, this course also exposes you to a range of jobs in exercise, physical activity and public health. Our graduates are fully equipped with the skills and knowledge to thrive in the ever-changing world of sport and exercise professions.
We define our future-ready graduates as confident, self-aware, competent and resilient. These attributes are strengthened as you progress through the different levels of learning. You gain the practical and communication skills for delivering applied physical activity sessions and working in teams. You become competent in using sport and exercise science methods, including fitness tests (VO2 max, blood sampling), technique analysis (3D motion analysis), assessing psychological needs, proposing training interventions and assessing the outcomes. You develop these applied skills when working both with athletes in our Sport and Exercise Science Consultancy module and with our partners in the local community, who use physical activity to improve health in different populations. This degree has been developed in consultation with key stakeholders, including Public Health South Tees, and is supported by the Football Association through discussions around content and delivery of the Primary Teachers’ and Secondary Teachers’ Awards. Our established links with local sports teams, Tees Valley Sport, Middlesbrough Football Club and MFC Foundation provide excellent opportunities for either work-related learning or undertaking placements in your second and third year, supported by a work placement conference with industry partners. You also develop the digital skills you need to become globally connected with athletes, industry and society, with research integrity at the heart of your learning experience.
