Bachelor of Science (Exercise and Sport Science)

Exercise scientists help people prevent and recover from injury and disease, help maximise athlete performance and promote wellbeing and healthy ageing. They use a person-centred approach to educate individuals and communities about the benefits of exercise and encourage lifelong positive exercise behaviours. In this course, you will gain the knowledge and skills in the pillars of exercise science – including biomechanics, physiology, psychology, behaviour change, and motor control and learning. You’ll build strong interpersonal communication skills, which are key attributes of person-centred care and practice. This degree is also a pathway to our Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology, which will broaden your capabilities and enable you to use exercise to treat chronic conditions.
