This course primarily focuses on the physiological and biomechanical elements of the human performer, while also providing you with grounding in the lab techniques used by physiologists and biomechanists. The course serves as ideal preparation for those wishing to pursue accreditation as a Sport Scientist through the British Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (BASES). Aims * To build on your existing knowledge and extend your understanding of applied physiology and sport and exercise biomechanics * To provide experiences designed to enhance critical analysis and independence of thought * To develop your understanding of, and competence in, research methods and statistical analysis * To enable you to critically evaluate and initiate project work relevant to applied physiology and sport and exercise biomechanics * To provide a sound and secure basis from which you may proceed to a research degree (eg PhD) or a career as an applied sport scientist with specialist knowledge in applied physiology and sport and exercise biomechanics. * To provide an integrated study programme that is compatible with current guidelines and benchmarks provided by or through BASES
