NUTRITION AND SPORT & EXERCISE SCIENCE BSC
Nutrition and exercise are the most fundamental components of a healthy lifestyle, with inappropriate nutrition and / or insufficient exercise being the most common causes of a wide range of disease. At the same time, correct nutrition is essential for supporting and maximising sports performance and training adaptations. Our degree in Nutrition and Sport & Exercise Science is therefore ideal for those with interests in both of these fields as a future career. You will gain the knowledge, skills and experience with which to forge a career working with clinical populations or elite sports performers.
You will develop the essential knowledge, understanding and skills that a nutritionist requires, with a focus on the delivery of five core competencies (Nutritional science, Food chain, Social and behaviour sciences, Health and well-being and Professional conduct). You will learn the skills needed to become a sports scientist, with an understanding of how to maximise sports performance while focusing on psychology, physiology, biomechanics, performance analysis, nutrition and strength & conditioning.
Study with us and you will have full access to the multi-million-pound, state-of-the-art Health Science Building and Sports Complex, incorporating dedicated research space and specialised nutrition teaching laboratories focused around clinical nutrition, nutritional biochemistry, food sensory analysis and food product development. The facility also houses ultra-modern equipment where you will learn to conduct complete physiological, biochemical and anthropometric assessment using indirect calorimetry, breath-by-breath expired gas analysis, blood analysis, vascular and cardiac screening, body composition analysis, eye-tracking, electromyography and motion capture, to name but a few.
You will leave with the skills to become a nutritionist and a sports scientist working in a public health setting (providing specialist advice for athletes and populations at risk of non-communicable disease) and also have the possibility to work with elite performers and obtain the basis to become a sports coach. You will leave with the skills to become a nutritionist and a sports scientist, able to work in public health settings providing specialist advice for populations at risk of non-communicable disease or support and coach elite sports performers
