From your first year, you’ll get real-world experience on placement. You’ll spend at least 200 hours on clinical placement gaining real-world experience with our partners including professional sports clubs such as Valencia Basketball Club and Gloucester Rugby as well as private practitioners. You can develop your experience with our student-led clinics, University sports teams and external competitions, such as the London Marathon. In many cases, our placement providers become your employer, offering internships through to full-time positions.
Our lecturers teach you how to support your sportsperson and give you access to specialist facilities, such as our BASES accredited human performance labs. You can measure joint movement patterns on our isokinetic dynamometer or an athlete’s skeletal movement with clinical gait analysis. You’ll be encouraged to take extra qualifications to stand out, with the Sports First Aid, Automated External Defibrillation (AED) and Advanced Trauma Qualification included in your tuition fee. There are also opportunities to work in our world-class University Arena – the UK’s first indoor sports hall specifically designed to include wheelchair athletes.
Our career-based assessment methods also compliment your placement opportunities. These include sports massage clinics, written laboratory reports and creating informative leaflets for athletes.
There’s plenty of opportunities to make new friends. You’ll peer review each other’s work, travel together for placement opportunities and get to join the societies which interest you.
When you graduate, you’ll join our course community of well-respected alumni, trusted to keep amateur and elite athletes on the pitch.
