Course summary
Overview Train for a record-breaking career in BSc Sports Development. With strong links to local and national partners, you’ll learn how to link theoretical knowledge with practice by gaining an understanding of the principles and application of sports and physical activity development. Supported by the highly regarded School of Education and Lifelong Learning, you’ll develop theoretical knowledge and practical skills, through an innovative blend of teaching methods and hands-on research. The course is enriched with an embedded placement opportunity and an empirical research experience. Such activities will further equip you with everything you’ll need for a successful career in physical activity and health promotion following graduation. Challenge yourself to push boundaries, whether it is using sport as a tool to overcome inequalities in our society or pushing elite athletes to reach their full potential. About This Course The UEA SportsPark is a multi-million-pound sports facility and is what we call home for both classroom and practical teaching. Our staff are active researchers and practitioners within the field. Their expertise informs module content and highlights key developments within the Sports Development sector.

Modules are designed to facilitate a smooth transition into higher education study for everyone.

Placement provider information There may be limitations to placement activity for students under the age of 18 due to the professional nature of some of our partner environments. This can be mitigated around, including the opportunity to undertake professional development activity which is not age restricted. Social and Community engagement Students under the age of 18 are not permitted to compete in the national British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS) league system and may be restricted from joining some sports clubs until the time that they turn 18. Some sports clubs' social events may be restricted from U18 attendance due to their nature. Physical Testing volunteering There are some opportunities on the course to act as a demonstrator in laboratory environments and our ethical approval may restrict the ability for U18s to take these roles. Observational roles are always available. If you are under 18 you may wish to consider deferring. If you would like to discuss this please contact the Admissions Team.
