Join the Sport Engineering program at Nottingham Trent University! Gain hands-on experience and industry connections. Apply now for a rewarding career!
Program Description With the facilities, opportunities and industry connections at Nottingham Trent University, it’s a completely different way of learning. Get involved in research from day one and learn about sport engineering by studying real-life scenarios, taking part in live industry projects and the annual Grand Challenge. This hands-on approach will develop the students' problem-solving and engineering skills – giving them the experience of what it is like to work as a professional engineer. The sport engineering industry looks to help solve problems associated with sport, health and exercise. It is a relatively new but rapidly expanding area which is attracting large interest and investment from professional sports clubs, sportswear and equipment manufacturers as well as health and wellbeing app and wearable technology developers. On this course students will design and develop sport technology concepts and devices. Students will be working on real projects set by organisations that could be looking at helping athletes get the most out of their training programmes, maximising sporting performance, or developing sport equipment and technology that gains advantages over competitors. Recently, Nottingham Trent University's students have worked on reverse engineering everyday objects, designing a racing motorcycle helmet and using industry standard software packages to improve the design of sports equipment. Students will benefit from excellent teaching. Nottingham Trent University are in the top 20 in the UK for teaching quality in general engineering (The Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2022).
