Overview

At the Sport and Exercise Medical Sciences BSc (Hons) at UCL you’ll learn all about how the human body functions in health and disease, and how it responds to exercise for health and performance. This course also covers injury management while also giving you a thorough grounding in medical sciences.

The foundation of your career

You will emerge from this course as an experienced sports graduate, equipped with practical experience, expertise in clinical exercise applications, proficiency in injury management, a comprehensive grasp of psychology and neuroscience in exercise, and an interdisciplinary perspective on sport and exercise science.

Many of our graduates choose to pursue further study - typically a Physiotherapy MSc, a graduate Medicine degree, or specialist courses in Clinical Exercise Physiology or related fields. According to the HESA Graduate Outcomes surveys (2018-2022), half of the Sport and Exercise Medical Science graduates who responded had gone on to further study. You’ll also be well placed to apply for higher research degrees, such as an MSc, PhD and NHS scientist programmes, or vocational graduate programmes in medicine or physiotherapy.

Other graduates move straight into sports industry professions, with employers including NHS Foundation Trusts, FIFA, and professional sports clubs in London. Alongside roles in sport performance, sport science research, and industry, you will also be well-prepared for positions in injury prevention and rehabilitation, clinical exercise prescription, and population health.
