- Benefit from access to state-of-the-art psychology laboratory equipment as part of the programme - Combine scientific rigour with practical experience and develop essential transferable skills to optimise your employment opportunities - High-quality teaching in a friendly learning environment from staff who have experience in both applied and research backgrounds - Excel in your studies and favourite sports at our fully equipped sport and exercise facilities Whichever sport you analyse, at the very top the game it’s fine margins that count. From the recent success of British cyclists to the mind games of football managers, boxers and tennis players, psychology plays a key role in an elite athlete’s success. Sports psychologists work to help both team and individual sports men and women to fine tune their physical and mental capacities to maximise performance at critical times. On our Sport and Exercise Psychology course, you explore how psychology has the power to boost the achievements of top-notch athletes, to increase those slender margins, as well as help people lead healthier and happier lives. Central to the programme is the understanding that you will develop the knowledge, skills, behaviour and values required of a future practitioner psychologist. Centred around our state-of-the-art sport and exercise facilities, this innovative, science-based programme allows you to focus on how psychology relates to all areas of sport and the importance of research methods within the field. Expert teaching combined with bespoke amenities, such as physiology and psychology laboratories, ensure you have the knowledge base to critically evaluate and engage with contemporary sport and exercise psychology research and practice. The course is designed to ensure you develop a strong theoretical and practical foundation within the field of sport and exercise psychology. This is the first step to developing individuals who are effectively prepared to practise as competent and confident professionals, who can make sound and compassionate decisions, problem solve and provide a consistent and high standard of evidence-based practice. You develop critical thinking and a strong evidence base to underpin future careers in a range of domains including sport and exercise. Graduates work as practitioner psychologists, sport and exercise scientists, teachers/lecturers, researchers/scientists, health promotion workers and in management roles in sport.
