BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise Science with a Foundation Year

We have graduates who run their own businesses, work for professional football clubs and national sport institutes, and who’ve landed jobs as far afield as the US and Australia. It all began with the skills, experience and connections they developed here at Staffordshire University.
Our degree is also endorsed by the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES), which means we meet rigorous national standards. We’re one of the first in the UK to secure this endorsement for our Strength and Conditioning specialist pathway too.
What’s more, our industry links include associations with professional sports clubs, national governing bodies, healthcare providers and education and training providers.On the course, you’ll explore the fundamentals of exercise physiology, sport psychology and biomechanics. It will involve practical studies in both laboratory and field settings, using our contacts with a wide range of organisations.
You’ll learn how to apply your skills and knowledge in different ways, so you could be working in elite sport, helping with rehabilitation, or improving health and wellbeing within the community. You could be putting data to use or developing personalised intervention programmes and coaching regimes.
Our facilities include specialist labs for physiology, body composition, biomechanics, and strength and conditioning. From building muscle strength through applying appropriate training principles - including the use of Olympic weightlifting - through to understanding the science of movement and the physiological and psychological demands of human performance and rehabilitation, you’ll get to grips with lots of specialist equipment.

Careers
Our Sport and Exercise Science graduates have achieved success in sport, teaching, health, and entrepreneurship.
Some have gained jobs with professional football clubs, in roles such as head of sport science, or have gone on to become top-level strength and conditioning coaches in both the UK and overseas. Others have become lab technicians, sport scientists, personal trainers, cardiac physiologists, and healthcare and exercise professionals working with GP referrals and rehabilitation. Many graduates decide to continue their studies with postgraduate qualifications, including PhD.
