About Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science (Honours) (095557K)
Over 8 million adults and 3 million children participate in sport each year, while nearly 60,000 Australians were hospitalized for sporting injuries between 2016–17. With such a high level of participation and risk, scientific research is extremely valuable in addressing issues relating to people's health, wellbeing, performance and participation. La Trobe's research in human movement and sports science is rated 'well above world standard'.
La Trobe's Bachelor of Sport and Exercise Science (Honours) lets students explore their rea of interest in sport and human performance. They can choose an area they're passionate about and delve deep into the science, theory and related practice. They'll work closely with a supervisor on a one-year research project, which will culminate in the submission of a thesis.
The focus of research is from a wide range of fields, including applied exercise physiology, biomechanics, strength and conditioning, sport analytics, sport performance and recovery, motor control and skill acquisition, and sport technology. From there, students will learn research skills relating to data collection and analysis, statistics, academic writing and science communication.
Students will have access to La Trobe's $150 million Sports Park as part of their Honours project, which features leading facilities for sport research and data analytics. When they study with La Trobe, they could have the chance to undertake their research with one of the University's elite sport partners, including Carlton Football Club, Melbourne City Football Club and Melbourne Rebels. La Trobe also has partnerships with Defense Science and Technology, Champion Data, Nike, Softball Victoria, Northern Football Netball League and Australian Institute of Sport.
