Sport and Exercise Science BSc (Hons)

About Program

The Sport and Exercise Science degree at UON focuses on the scientific principles that underpin sport and exercise. Our course is practical-based, stimulating, well-structured and research-informed, covering a range of topic areas including biomechanics, physiology and psychology. The practical elements of our Sport and Exercise Science course make use of purpose-built laboratories to develop your knowledge and understanding of the key issues within sport and exercise science. We have a strong applied focus and we work consistently through the year with the big three sporting clubs in the area (Northampton Town Football Club, Northampton Saints Rugby and Northants County Cricket) to help you transition from your degree to a real world / working environment. Evidence supporting the need for exercise for fitness and health is now widely accepted in industry, education, medicine and sport. This increasingly important role has led to a demand for scientific evidence to improve sport performance making sport and exercise science courses a rapidly advancing area of study. Our course aims to develop your critical skills, allowing you to investigate and analyse issues from a scientific perspective, as well as enhancing your personal and transferable skills. Finally, the course is endorsed by the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES) which is a well-established, respected and highly regarded commendation that indicates the high calibre of work, applied practice and academic standards that we espouse.
