BSC BUSINESS WITH SPORT SCIENCE

This programme is for students who have a desire to work in the growing and diverse range of businesses in the area of sports, exercise and well-being.

The sports, exercise and well-being sector is one of the largest service industries in Ireland and globally. Ranging from small to large enterprises, many are run by sports-professionals. These businesses need graduates who can both understand the science and practicalities of the sports and exercise sector, and the fundamentals of how to create value and make a profit - via services and solutions that meet a variety of customers.
MH412 provides students with the unique option of combining business (a combination of business modules including Accounting, Business Management), with sports-related content - from practical exercise skills to the science behind human performance and wellbeing.
In your third year, you will have an opportunity to undertake a work placement (subject to availability) which will allow you to apply what you have learned. Given the diversity of businesses in this sector, many run by those without formal business training, people with both business and sports-science knowledge is highly attractive with many opportunities.

Unique offering: Maynooth University offers the only programme that allows you to combine a full business degree with sports-science.
Accredited work placement: The opportunity to undertake a full- year work placement (subject to availability), in Ireland or abroad, as an integral part of your degree which gives you a chance to put your learning into practice and significantly improves your employability upon graduation.
Employability:

Employees that have both a deep insight into how to create value for businesses (through Accounting, Marketing, Management or International Business skills) and the science of sports exercise.
Follow your passion: Many enjoy sporting activities but sports and exercise are well known to have mental and physiological benefits. In combination with the business modules, this programme will allow you to understand how sports and exercise can impact on your health, allowing you to explore how this can be translated to new services and solutions.
