For the first time ever, includes a ranking of world's top universities for sports-related subjects. In compiling this ranking, sports (or exercise) science, sports studies and kinesiology were all deemed eligible. Depending on the individual degree contents, sports psychology and sports management may also have been considered.
A sports science course introduces students to the various branches of science that relate to the relationship between exercise and the human body. Over the course of the degree students will develop an understanding of physiology, psychology, neurophysiology, biomechanics, biochemistry, psychophysiology, anatomy, biokinetics, muscle mechanics and immunology, and by being exposed to these various disciplines sports science students have a wide foundation of knowledge to help them decide which career path would be best suited for them. So, whether you’re interested in sports science or coaching the stars of tomorrow, these are the universities you should be considering.
