Overview

Having developed your understanding of the therapist’s role, sport and exercise science, therapy and rehabilitation techniques, you will have a vast array of opportunities to gain experience putting your training to the test in the real world. Our past Sports Therapy degree students have gained prestigious placements with Team Scotland at the 2022 Commonwealth Games and with the Scottish Rugby Union at the 2019 Rugby World Cup and Six Nations, as well as working for a host of other prolific sports clubs, organisations and events. You will also have the chance to work in University College Birmingham ’s cutting-edge sports facilities, including our sports injury/massage clinics and our Human Performance Centre on campus.

During your studies, you can gain a variety of further industry qualifications including sports massage and first aid. On successful completion of our Sports and Exercise Therapy (Hons) course from University College Birmingham, you will also be qualified to join the industry’s professional body, The Society of Sports Therapists.

Work placements

Work placements are vital for gaining real-life experience and for building your confidence and skills before you finish your course – and they may even lead to a job when you graduate. Our Hired team can help find the ideal placement for you.

Placements are a requirement of The Society of Sports Therapists, so we encourage students on our FdSc and BSc Sports Therapy courses to gain work experience throughout your studies, working on placement with professional sports therapists.
