Course content
Our world-class staff collaborate with world-leading clinical and scientific researchers in two research groups - Exercise, Health and Human Performance, and Sport, Pedagogy and Practice.
The Exercise, Health and Human Performance group have medicine as an underlying theme and seek to understand the role and implementation of exercise testing for disease risk; the effectiveness of lifestyle interventions involving physical activity; and responses and adaptations to exercise and sport.
Sport, Pedagogy and Practice seek to develop innovative research that explores the complex and multi-layered nature of applied coaching practice, as well as the challenging nature of personal experiences within sport and exercise.
On the one-year MSc by Thesis degree (two years part-time), the main emphasis is on the research dissertation of 20,000 words. The topic is chosen by you with the advice of your supervisor. The MSc is an ideal step for those wishing to progress to a PhD.
