program description

on this course, students will learn to maximise sports performance and improve general health and wellbeing through exercise. 

in their first year, students will study topics, including anatomy, biochemistry, fitness and health, physiology, kinesiology, and skill acquisition, ensuring they have a solid foundation upon which to build the rest of their degree. 

during their second year, students will apply their knowledge in a sporting context, incorporating perspectives from physiology, nutrition, psychology, biomechanics and management, with opportunity for interdisciplinary application and the development of discipline-specific practical skills.

in their third year, students will select two optional modules, exploring topics such as advances in nutrition, biological rhythms, exercise referrals and prescriptions, and human movement and rehabilitation.
