Module Overview:
This module will prepare students for employment in applied sports science and to develop real-world applications of their theoretical knowledge and technical skills learned in other modules from the programme. Guided by the BASES competencies, students will develop understanding of the working environment within sport science and the knowledge and behaviours required to be successful. The module will enable students to self-evaluate, plan their professional development and reflect on experiences from the real-world environment. In addition, students will identify and develop key technical and non-technical skills for working successfully in sport science within their own discipline and collaborating as part of a multidisciplinary team.
