Our degree in Sport and Exercise Medical Sciences prepares you to become a leading professional and/or scientist in the field of exercise and health. This degree offers a distinct advantage over sport science or physiotherapy degrees for those seeking comprehensive knowledge in human health, clinical exercise applications, and the psychology and neuroscience behind exercise.
On this course, you will study:
- Medical sciences, and how the human body works in health and in disease
- How to prevent and manage specific diseases through physical activity such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease
- How to prevent and manage sports injuries
- How to optimise performance in elite sport
- How our mind and body interact, and the psychology and neuroscience of physical activity.
All your subjects are taught by world-renowned experts from various departments at UCL. We take pride in our partnership with the Institute of Sport, Exercise, and Health (ISEH), providing you with access to an extensive network in elite sport and public health, along with valuable opportunities for internships and employment. You will also benefit from world-class teaching on the psychology and neuroscience modules which are delivered by experts from the UCL Faculty of Brain Sciences.
While studying with us, you’ll gain an in-depth grounding in medical sciences, with a focus on exercise medicine, sports injuries, human health and performance, and disease. The course covers the foundations of human biology and medicine, such as how the body works, what goes wrong in disease, and how to treat it. We then introduce you to how the body responds during exercise.
