Sports science, Loughborough University

fair content, fair practical sessions, less job opportunities in UK

Wishing that I hadn't done sports science - too many people studying it and not really had any luck finding work in an area that's relevant to my studies.

Love this course and of course the job prospects are amazing being ranked 1st for sport. The content is great for me with many experts for lecturers

Liked being able to choose all modules in second year

Teaching is quite poor as everything is just said rather than actually taught - lectures should not be main method of teaching (small classes work better)

This degree allowed me to take some management modules as well as some that were more physiology based

Amazing course, so many opportunities and amazing lecturers

Good course, interesting modules and engaging course

First year is a bit slow, and the content is a bit basic so far

Great course, interesting content. Able to pick and choose modules dependent on your career goals (after first year). Well taught, well assessed.

A variety of different modules that could appeal to everyone interested in the subject.

Great support from all the lecturers. Labs are really interesting and lecture information is always available to you after I you missed information.

Great course

The best course at the best university for sport. Fantastic facilities and the leading lecturers in each field! The course is diverse which most universities could not offer!

It is what you make of it!

Great course however I've only seen my personal tutor once in the whole of first year

Not much work required in year 1, covers a wide range of topics

There are a wide range of modules to choose from which is good, though theres not a lot of contact hours for the money we are paying

The sports side of the course starts off much easier than the maths side, which is a huge step up from A-level, especially if you havent done further maths.

Great range of modules.

Really good course for people looking to work in the sports industry

I really enjoy my course, great teaching and great content

My course is not on the list

The School of Sports, Health and Exercise Sciences is such a great place to learn and start your professional life that you might not get a similar experience anywhere.

good course with lots of fun and good career prospect in my country.

Course is very interesting and I feel like I will have plenty of career options given I achieve a good degree

Amazing academics and very interesting and money worth course

Really enjoyed my course - especially in final year. Inspiring lectures, interesting content and good support throughout.

The combination of these two subjects is not one that you would initially think of, however having completed part of the degree already, I now see where the link is, a range of topics to suit everyone’s preferences allows you to adapt your degree to what suits you best

A course that has developed my personality , my outlook on life and my academic knowledge in things I never thought I’d be interested in. So many opportunities to achieve your dreams with so much support from friends, lecturers and personal tutors.

Loughborough is number 1 is the world for sport related studies which says it all for itself.

Value for money is never valued

It’s the best sports university in the world, what else is there to say

excellent course been able to have so many chances to meet potential employers and can't fault it but the personal tutor is not really active to help.

Great

Fantastic, perfect start to my career

Good spread of subjects, if at times a little too exam heavy

A really cool multi-faceted degree that allows me to explore a number of interests and keep my learning fresh due to the module variety.

This is such a Loughborough mix of a course that it was hard to say no - absolutely loved every minute of my studies here!

The quality of teaching differs from what you experience in sixth form. However, course content may not always be deemed difficult as previous background knowledge is proven to be useful for further studies

Originally studying mechanical engineering and transferred on to the Sports Technology course. The staff are very supportive and take the time to get to know students, this is helped by having a small group to start with. The course content is broad and inspiring, the lectures are happy to make time to help solve problems. Projects come directly from industry so right from the start you gain an understanding of the real world problems that need solving and where a career could take you.

The sports science course offers a wide variety of modules so you can tailor it to suit your interests. The lecturers are world-leading researchers so you really get the most from every interaction and the facilities are fantastic.

The course shifted perspective to a real business-oriented approach in my final year. As someone who was not particularly academic during my school years and not the most confident with mathematical subjects, I was apprehensive. However, the academic staff and course content enabled me to enhance my knowledge of different subject areas I never thought I would.

Can be really interesting, some modules aren't great though. It's the best place to study sport and it's easy to see why. Top Class

It's an interesting joint honours course and though there should be more information on the module options, it's great having the best of both worlds
