In our MSc/PgDip Sport Nutrition program, you'll analyze the scientific research on nutrition, athletic performance, and health while acquiring the nutritional and physiological expertise required for careers in sports nutrition.
You'll explore nutritional science, exercise physiology, and performance enhancement, covering subjects from practical applications of macronutrient adjustments to assessing strategies for pre-exercise fueling, recovery nutrition, and body composition management.
Through hands-on training in our campus labs, nutrition facilities, and at premier sports venues throughout Greater Manchester (including our Platt Lane complex), you'll build practical competencies.
Your practical evaluations may involve food composition analysis and developing performance enhancement strategies for athletes. Potential investigations could examine cardiovascular function and recovery rates, or assess how nutritional supplements might influence athletic performance.
To refine your professional abilities, you can pursue internship opportunities through our network of regional employers, ranging from professional football clubs to amateur netball teams across the Northwest.
