The aim of this module is for students to design, conduct and report on an original research study of an aspect of their MSc programme.

The aims of this module are to enable students to develop knowledge and understanding of the metabolic demands of sport and exercise and how performance and/or training responses can be optimised through nutrition.

The aims of this module are for students to develop knowledge and competency in a range of research techniques relevant to the study of sport and exercise physiology/nutrition to enable them to undertake laboratory-based research in these areas.

The aims of this module are for students to develop a detailed understanding of the role of the nutritionist within sport and exercise and to develop a range of relevant practical skills required for applied sport and exercise practice.

The aims of this module are for students to develop an understanding of current research in the field of physiology of exercise and sport, and its application to the performance, recovery or health of the athlete, as well as of the framework within which the exercise physiologist operates within a sport-science or clinical setting.
