Description:

The Sport and Exercise Science degree at Lincoln was developed to meet both the student demand and the growing reputation of sport and exercise science and the role that sport and physical activity can play in improving the health of the nation. The program is a multidisciplinary degree that aims to develop students’ knowledge, understanding and practical skills in the key areas of physiology, biomechanics, and psychology so they can understand their impact on sports performance, physical activity, and health. This degree reflects current research-informed teaching and innovation within the sector. Throughout the course, students have access to specialist equipment and facilities including our sports laboratory, endless pool and fitness suite.

Integrated into the curriculum are a number of professional qualifications that students may potentially gain alongside their degree at no extra cost. These industry recognized qualifications are endorsed by SkillsActive and may include Gym Instruction, Personal Training, and Exercise Referral.
