Course Description

To reflect growing opportunities in Rehabilitation Sciences, Loughborough University is launching a new MSc in Exercise Rehabilitation in Autumn 2024.

This flexible programme will enable you to develop fundamental knowledge, understanding and skills across all aspects of rehabilitation sciences in an exercise context, before giving you the opportunity to specialise in musculoskeletal rehabilitation or rehabilitation for non-communicable (chronic) diseases.

You will have the chance to gain practice-based experience, as well as undertake an independent research project to address a scientific question or real-life issue.

Entry Requirements

Typical entry requirements are a 2:1 honours degree or equivalent international qualification in sports and/or exercise science or other relevant biological science that contains an element of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics or kinesiology.
