This Master's degree is designed to support students in developing into outstanding Strength and Conditioning coaches. Why study Strength and Conditioning (Distance Learning)? To be an excellent strength and conditioning coach requires a wide knowledge across several domains and a number of different skill sets. These include: - An extensive "toolbox" of training exercises and interventions - An understanding of movement and the ability to teach movement - An understanding of how the body adapts to training and how to organise training to maximise desirable adaptations - An ability to coach - The ability to understand various sources of evidence (including scientific evidence) and use it to inform your practice Our Master's degree in Strength and Conditioning has been designed with these demands in mind and aims to support students in developing as excellent strength and conditioning coaches.
Getting in
As the university states it
A 2:2 in an undergraduate degree, preferably in Sport Science or a related field. Experience in the strength and conditioning field amounting to at least ten hours per week is also required. This can be either paid or voluntary work. Some flexibility in requirements is possible for those achieving lower degree classifications where they can demonstrate substantial industry experience and that their current commitment to study has progressed from the time of their first degree.
