What you will study

In your first year, you’ll study topics including anatomy, biochemistry, fitness and health, physiology, kinesiology, and skills acquisition, ensuring you have a solid foundation upon which to build the rest of your degree.

During your second year, you’ll apply your knowledge in a sporting context, incorporating perspectives from physiology, nutrition, psychology, biomechanics and management, with the opportunity for interdisciplinary application and the development of discipline-specific practical skills.

In your third year, you’ll select two optional modules, exploring topics such as advances in nutrition, biological rhythms, exercise referrals and prescriptions, and human movement and rehabilitation.

You’ll also complete a research project, bringing together all the practical, analytical and presentation skills you’ve developed. Current students are investigating topics like ‘The effect of New Zealand blackcurrant extracts on running performance.’
