Division of Sport Science
The Division of Sport Science, part of the Department of Exercise, Sport, and Lifestyle Medicine, offers comprehensive programmes and research initiatives that explore human body motion from physiological, anatomical, and biomechanical perspectives. Key areas of study include applied anatomy and biomechanics, motor learning, sport and exercise physiology, sport ethics, programme development, sport injuries, coaching, adapted movement programmes, and the fitness industry. The practical components provide extensive experience in human movement, fitness and skill development in coaching.
Sport Science is an interdisciplinary field that examines human physiology, biomechanics, psychology, and nutrition within the context of sports and exercise. It focuses on enhancing athletic performance, promoting physical activity, understanding the body's response to exercise, and fostering overall health and well-being.
