BSc (Hons) Sport Rehabilitation

Sport Rehabilitators work with patients or athletes with a wide range of neuro-musculoskeletal conditions, whether it’s managing or treating a long-term medical issue or overseeing their recovery from a shorter term injury. You’ll therefore need to have the confidence to act with independent autonomy towards your patient’s care when necessary, as well as the ability to work with other healthcare professionals, so a thorough grounding in the likes of physiology, psychology, biomechanics, and strength and conditioning is essential. You’ll also spend a minimum of 400 hours on clinical placement gaining real-world experience, with our partners including professional sports clubs such as Hull FC and Hull KR, as well as private practitioners.

You could even develop your experience at the University's Health, Injury and Performance (HIP) Hub. This student-led clinic offers appointments to real patients from the local community and gives you the opportunity to put your knowledge into practice by overseeing their assessment, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation as part of your degree. You’ll have the chance to showcase your final-year project at our Student Thesis Conference, celebrating your research alongside fellow students and professionals.

It’s a fantastic way to develop presentation skills, make even more industry connections, and share your passion for sport and exercise science - learn more here.
