Course summary
The online version of our MSc Sport and Exercise Psychology course is an opportunity to extend your understanding and application of sport and exercise psychology, in a focused and supportive online learning community. Taught entirely remotely, this one-year course will teach you to become an active problem-solver, providing the best psychological solutions to the performance challenges encountered in today’s sports. You’ll learn through methods such as online seminars and workshops, self-paced learning tasks (including video bites and quizzes), group forum activities and video tutorials. As well as delivering a contemporary curriculum, we help students develop a network of fellow sport and exercise psychology-focused online learners. Our staff are expert researchers and practitioners, connected internationally with the sport and exercise profession, so they’re able to provide opportunities for you to engage with the profession regardless of where you are located across the world. As a student with us, you’ll also have the opportunity to take part in remotely mentored applied practice experiences, as well as existing Health Sciences University research projects.
