Sport Performance and Analysis MSc
The first course of its kind, our Sport Performance and Analysis MSc will enable you to integrate the study of high-performance sport with your own experiences as an athlete, coach, practitioner, or someone passionate about elite sport.
This course is aimed at those with an interest in high-performance coaching and analysis.
You will study how we need to adopt a holistic approach to high-performance professional practice. One that not only has an emphasis on technical and tactical improvement, but importantly involves understanding individual, collective and organisational goals, developing and maintaining productive relationships, and constructively influencing a range of key stakeholders.The focus of the curriculum will be:
- How we co-ordinate and contribute to high-quality training environments
- How we analyse and support competition preparation and execution
- How we continually develop ourselves and mobilise others
- How we enact ethical practice and protect the welfare of people empowered to achieve their potential
The Sport Performance and Analysis MSc aims to build upon your current knowledge, understanding and practical experiences of training and coaching environments. It will equip you with leading-edge academic knowledge,along with key practical and research skills, to become a critically reflective practitioner who is prepared for a career in high-performance sport.
Throughout each semester, you will develop a critical understanding of relevant theoretical and vocational issues, with an emphasis on building a synergetic relationship between theory and practice. This will provide a basis for entry into further professional development within the sport industry, as well as doctoral study. This development of this programme has been guided by our world-leading and internationally excellent research as well as the key professional competencies outlined for elite performance support by UK Coaching.
A key feature of our Sport Performance and Analysis MSc is its opportunities for volunteering within the University's sports department. A focus on professional skills and vocational practice throughout this course will help improve your employability by gaining hands-on experience.
At the start of Semester One, you will be informed of the options for Semester Two. You will be encouraged to discuss your choice of optional modules with your personal tutor. Information concerning the modules will also be made available on the Electronic Learning Platform. You will choose one of the following options:
