Here, it’s personal. When you walk through our doors for the first time, you’re a valued member of a tight-knit community.

You’ll be taught by experts who know your name: tutors who work with both elite-level sports performers and NHS patients, and who’ve collaborated with FIFA, the International Olympic Committee and the World Anti-Doping Agency.

Our facilities are some of the best in the country following a recent £16 million investment – meaning you'll study the principles and theory that underpin sport, exercise and rehabilitation science using the latest equipment – and our degrees are fully accredited by the leading industry bodies.

Real work. Real people. Real opportunity

All our courses are career focused with work placements that are built into your degree.

We have connections with professional sports teams such as Hull City, Hull FC and Hull KR in addition to local health providers and schools. This means that you’ll learn to apply the theory through hands-on placements in your area of interest.

You could even develop your experience at the University's Health, Injury and Performance (HIP) Hub, which is a student-led clinic that offers appointments to treat real patients from the local community.

Is studying a Sport Science degree interesting?

Yes. You’ll be changing lives and helping people realise what they're capable of, whether you want to work with elite athletes or in a clinical setting.

Our degrees provide the foundation for a career in both health and exercise or sports and performance, and you'll be taught by staff who are conducting world-leading research.

But we don't expect you to just take our word for it. That's why we asked a panel of experts to explain why they fell in love with the subject.
