Overview

The Sport and Exercise Sciences program is offered by University of Johannesburg.

Health care systems are under increasing pressure to cope with shifting demographics, the threat of chronic and non-communicable disease, pandemics, and rising health care costs. The uptake of innovations and technologies to meet these challenges and to advance medicine and health care delivery is not as rapid as the pace of change. Due to this challenge and pace of change, the University of Johannesburg (UJ) has mandated remarkable strides towards the fourth industrial revolution (4IR) activities and imperatives. In doing so, and in alignment with the GES 4.0, it is envisaged that the proposed Biomedical Engineering and Healthcare Technology (BEAHT) Research Centre will be the benchmark and hub for healthcare technology and innovative success.
