About Physical Activity and Health, BSc (Hons) - at Abertay University

Benefit from first-rate academic support and turn your passion for sports and science into a degree that equips you with the knowledge and skills required to understand the impact of physical activity and health at an individual and community level.

Physical Activity and Health is one of the specialist routes within the sports portfolio at Abertay - this means you'll make your choice of specialism at the end of stage two of the BSc (Hons) Sport and Exercise programme.

This degree draws on the core disciplines of physiology, psychology, sociology and public health theory, allowing you to facilitate health promotion interventions - a crucial part of improving the wellbeing of the population.

You'll go on to study more specific physical activity and health modules, covering areas such as public health policy and health promotion, as well as exercise prescriptions for general and specialist populations.

You'll have access to our Human Performance Laboratory, with running, rowing, fitness testing and weights machines. You'll also have opportunities to meet with a range of charitable health and social care organisations who regularly draw on the expertise of our lecturing staff within this facility.

Abertay is widely regarded as THE place to come for high quality teaching. But don't take our word for it:
