Course structure
Taught material is currently delivered on Wednesdays, facilitating study by part-time as well as full-time students. The taught material is split between lecture material and seminars/laboratory work. Around 80 per cent of study time is in the form of projects, independent study or a range of directed study tasks. The Professional Enquiry module is undertaken by all students and provides the opportunity to work alongside experienced practitioners in areas relevant to the student's interest. All students also study Health and Performance Profiling and Research Methods. Students undertake two route-specific modules such as Exercise Metabolism and Environmental Stress and Physiological Profiling (other route-specific modules may be available). Finally, the dissertation is expected to be on a relevant topic.

Areas of study
The subject areas covered draw on a range of exercise physiology topics such as environmental physiology, physiological profiling, nutrition and metabolism.
