This double degree will help you to develop professional skills to manage and lead activities and events across the sport science and outdoor recreation industries. Specialisations include clinical exercise science, sport science or human movement, as well as a focus on sport management skills.
In our state-of-the-art exercise science laboratories and research facilities, you will build a comprehensive understanding of the science that underpins health, physical activity and exercise.
