About Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Sport and Exercise (C600)

Program Description

Dive in to a rich pool of diverse sport and exercise topics – from scientific support, coaching and service provision to duty of care and community development, this programme has been designed to reflect an ever-evolving employment market. Gain a deeper understanding of the sciences that underpin sport, and discover how the body responds to sport by exploring topics including physiology, psychology and biomechanics, as well as social policy and sport development. Students can choose from a range of study programmes that address the physiology and psychology of performance, the science of training practices, the development and social impact of sport and exercise (for example, on health and wellbeing), and the evaluation and analysis of sports performance.

Students will be given access to Abertay's Human Performance Laboratory, Strength and Conditioning Suite and Motion Tracking Laboratory. This means students will be able to use equipment such as the environmental chamber, gas analysis, force platform and 2-D cameras. This degree provides students with topical information, an ability to translate theory to practice, and the opportunity to gain relevant employment experience within the industry, while still providing students with the flexibility to follow their own interests. 

In the first two years, students will follow a core curriculum that provides a basis for more specialized study in the final two years. At the end of the second year of study, students will choose a route leading to BSc (Hons) in one of the following specific named awards: 
  • BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science
  • BSc (Hons) Physical Activity and Health
  • BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise
  • BSc (Hons) Sports Development and Coaching
  • BSc (Hons) Strength and Conditioning

Practical activities and work placements will enable students to contextualize theory to real life applications - including volunteering with the Active Schools programme - and work towards National Governing Body, or industry qualifications. 

Graduates are typically well-placed to work as sports development officers, high-performance coaches, scientific support specialists, outdoor instructors, fitness consultants, lifestyle managers, health promotion specialists, teachers, lecturers, physical activity leaders, or researchers.
