Bachelor of Sports Studies

The Bachelor of Sport Studies at UNE is a multidisciplinary program that develops a comprehensive understanding of the academic and applied aspects of sport, health and fitness. The flexible program includes studies in human biology, physiology, biomechanics, fitness training, sport psychology, sociology, history, politics, philosophy and policy developments of sport, and sports coaching. Building on a foundation of core units in Year 1, the structure of the course enables students from their second year to commence a specialist major, dependent upon their career goals, in one of 2 distinct strands - Physical Education or Sports Management. Alternatively as part of our flexible teaching program students can elect not to specialise but to follow the general program by selecting the required number of units from the listed units in the program of study.

Bachelor of Exercise and Sports Science

This course provides foundation knowledge and understanding in the biophysical sciences (e.g. anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, etc.), before further study on the acute and chronic neuromuscular, metabolic and cardiorespiratory responses to physical activity and exercise. Core technical and analytical skills are developed in the areas of exercise testing, movement analysis and exercise prescription, in addition to study in psychology and behaviour modification. In the final trimester of study, students normally complete 140 hours of practicum experience in health, fitness or sport related industries, where prior learning is consolidated. Graduates gain expertise in the measurement and analysis of exercise capacity, and in the design and implementation of exercise interventions for apparently healthy individuals, including elite and recreational athletes.

Bachelor of Exercise and Sports Science
(Clinical Exercise Physiology)

This course provides foundation knowledge and understanding in the biophysical sciences (eg. anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, etc), before further study on the acute and chronic neuromuscular, metabolic and cardiorespiratory responses to physical activity and exercise. Core technical and analytical skills are developed in the areas of exercise testing, movement analysis and exercise prescription, in addition to study in psychology and behaviour modification. The final year of study provides advanced training in clinical exercise testing, prescription and supervision to manage a number of complex and chronic health conditions. Students complete 500 hours of practicum experience in exercise delivery demonstrating proficiency in the management of neuromuscular, cardiopulmonary, metabolic and other health conditions. Graduates are recognised for their expertise in the clinical application of exercise-based rehabilitation.
