MSc Physical Activity, Health and Society
Explore the physiological, psychological, social and political role of physical activity in our society and its impact on health. Our Physical Activity, Health and Society programme examines social and health inequalities and explores how we might use physical activity to improve equity.
Our world-leading academics deliver the programme, offering a cutting-edge curriculum and building on our collaborative expertise in these areas and associated research methods. The programme explores the vital role of physical activity in society, from policy and public health to the spaces and places which enhance, shape and curtail movement.
We’ve developed this programme to allow flexibility and choice together with academic rigour and coherence. Along with a dissertation, you’ll undertake compulsory modules which will critically examine key challenges associated with physical activity to improve health and wellbeing, and consider strategies to tackle health inequalities and social injustice.
