Overview

The Strength, Conditioning and Sports Nutrition (Hons) degree from University College Birmingham is one of only a small number in the UK that is accredited by the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) as part of the NSCA Education Recognition Programme, preparing you for long-term professional success after graduation. Supported by University College Birmingham’s cutting-edge sports facilities and equipment, along with a range of opportunities for you to gain practical experience, you will learn how to use a broad range of conditioning skills to optimise an athlete’s performance, as well as gaining an understanding of how nutrition can improve results.

Alongside your strength and conditioning course, you will also have the chance to gain a wide variety of further industry-accredited qualifications during your studies. Options range from first aid and sports massage to gym instruction and coaching weight lifting.
