In Years 3 and 4 of their course, students undertake a number of subjects in research methodology and complete an independent Research Project in their final year. In addition, students may select 3 electives from an area of interest such as sports psychology, sports media or advanced human movement. This component of the course is a combination of practical performance and industrial based fieldwork. Individual performance competence is expected in the practical areas of dance, gymnastics, aquatics, outdoor recreation, team and lifetime sports. Fieldwork experience will be achieved through placement in a variety of agencies such as sports camps, vacation recreation centres, coaching programs, health and fitness clubs and community service facilities.
Entry is competitive and merit based.
Students are advised to contact the Course Coordinator if they have any questions regarding aspects of the course.
