Sport, exercise and health
Undergraduate courses starting in 2021
The study of sport explores the impact of sport, exercise and health on individuals and society.
You could explore sport, exercise and health, coaching, management, leisure and physical activity, and how the body works. You don’t need to be good at sport to take a sports degree.
Your study of sport could incorporate many other academic fields. These include physiology, psychology, anatomy, biology, biochemistry, engineering, chemistry, politics, management, education, sociology and cultural studies. Courses cover anything from exercise physiology to the relationship between sport and the media.
