Why study Sport and Athlete Programs?
A degree in sport and exercise science offers students the chance to start their career in an industry that is going from strength to strength. In recent years, there has been tremendous investment in sport, especially in the UK. Governments see the real benefits of the population being engaged in physical activity throughout their lives. There are now many schemes in place to encourage people to take up sport. Professional sportsmen and sportswomen also rely on a team of coaches, trainers, nutritionists, psychologists, biomechanists and physiotherapists to help them perform better. There are more people going to gyms and other sporting and exercise facilities. All of this means that there is a greater demand for expertise in the area of sports science.
