BSc Sport and Exercise Science

The BSc Sport and Exercise Science at Coventry University is an undergraduate degree that builds students' physicality, stamina, and agility through sport and exercise. This course is primarily practical, and students learn the techniques used to develop muscles for longevity. Students who prefer physical activity over stagnation will find this degree enjoyable.

In this programme, students have the opportunity to play sports like tennis, badminton, football, cricket, and even swimming. These activities are included in the curriculum so that students can learn the scientific concepts and develop their sporting skills, one of which is the projectile in Physics, to help them understand time of flight, while also practising enough to understand the theories discussed even better. This course also provides students with the opportunity to learn how the human body, including the mind, during exercise, sport, and physical activity, promotes fitness, overall performance, prevents injury, and chronic conditions.

The course covers physiology, biochemistry, biomechanics, and psychology. Learning is through practical sessions, field visits, lectures, tutorials, and seminars. Assessment methods include essays, phase tests, presentations, assignments, reports, examinations, and a final-year project.
