Teaching takes place at the Institute of Sport, Exercise and Health (ISEH), one of world's leading institutes for sport and exercise medicine.
Develop your knowledge of sports medicine, sports injuries, and exercise medicine on this evidence-based programme, with flexible study options to fit around work and other commitments.
The programme focuses on managing sports medicine and musculoskeletal injuries, and the vital role physical activity plays in preventing and treating chronic disease. You will learn about the prevention, diagnosis, and management of sports injuries and medical conditions in athletes, explore exercise physiology, and take an optional module on team and event medicine or the rehabilitation of sports injuries. All students study research methods, and those on the MSc also develop essential research skills by working on an independent research project.
