Important Information

Whilst the University will make every effort to offer the modules listed, changes may sometimes be made arising from the annual monitoring, review and update of modules. Where this activity leads to significant (but not minor) changes to programmes and their constituent modules, the University will endeavour to consult with students and others. It is also possible that the University may not be able to offer a module for reasons outside of its control, such as the illness of a member of staff. In some cases optional modules can have limited places available and so you may be asked to make additional module choices in the event you do not gain a place on your first choice. Where this is the case, the University will inform students.

As you progress into year two, you’ll have the flexibility to tailor your module choices to your career aspirations. From psychology to aquatics, policy and partnerships to the scientific underpinnings of physical activity, you’ll have the opportunity to explore various areas, test out your preferences, and hone your expertise.

The emphasis will be on hands-on research and experience in physical education, sport, and health, which will lay the foundation for your year three dissertation research project. You’ll gain an understanding of common research methods used in the field, taught through a combination of practical sessions and lectures. You’ll also undertake an extended work placement with a local organisation of your choice within the physical activity and health sector.

Before submitting assignments, you’ll practise tasks and receive feedback to help you improve. Lecturers may give written or verbal feedback depending on the assessment.

In year two, assessments come from work completed in core and optional modules. You may write essays, give presentations, create resources, develop research proposals, or experiment with formats such as podcasts.

In your final year, assessment focuses on coursework demonstrating your skills and knowledge. You may complete practical demonstrations, essays, presentations, and creative resources. You’ll also produce videos or develop grant proposals to build valuable employability skills. For your dissertation, you’ll work with a supervisor who will guide you and provide feedback throughout the process.
