Sport And Exercise Science - Bsc (hons) in Anglia Ruskin University

Overview

Want to turn your love of sport into a lifelong career? All major athletes and teams need a sports scientist. Learn to apply the key disciplines of sport and exercise science – physiology, psychology, bio-mechanics and nutrition – and be taught by world-leading experts in our fantastic specialist labs in Cambridge, accredited by the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences. Take a placement year or internships with Cambridge United and British Judo, among others, and muscle in on this fast-moving area.

Careers

We work with employers to make sure you graduate with the knowledge, skills and abilities they need. They help us review what we teach and how we teach it – and they offer hands-on, practical opportunities to learn through work-based projects, internships or placements.

During the course, you’ll be encouraged to improve your employment prospects by making connections with industry. For example, you should consider becoming a student member of the British Association of Sport & Exercise Sciences (BASES) or the European College of Sports Sciences (ECSS). You can then attend, and even present at, their student conferences. We also have links with a wide range of sporting organisations, including:

• Living Sport (Cambridge and Peterborough Sports Development)
• British Paralympic Association
• British Cycling
• British Judo Association
• European College of Sports Medicine
• American College of Sports Medicine
• England & Wales Cricket Board. 

Sports science graduates are increasingly in demand around the world. There are wide-ranging employment opportunities for introducing people to sport and exercise, to developing them as participants, and even helping take them to the top. As a sports scientist, you could work:

• as an athlete-support scientist (with teams and national sports associations)
• as an exercise consultant
• as a performance analyst
• in the health and fitness industry
• as a clinical physiologist
• in applied health and physical activity.

You could also continue your studies, perhaps by doing a PGCE, which would allow you to teach. You might go on to train as a physiotherapist, exercise physiologist, clinical exercise consultant or healthcare scientist in the NHS. Postgraduate degrees in sports science, including our MSc Sport and Exercise Science, are also more and more popular as a route into doing PhD research.

We have strong research and collaboration links with the Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge; Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences, University Paris-Saclay; and The Department of Sports Science University of Minas Gerais, Brazil.
