Advance your career with a Master's in Clinical Exercise Physiology at Loughborough University. Ideal for international students. Apply now!
Loughborough University's Master of Science in Clinical Exercise Physiology will equip students with the knowledge and skills to promote the prescription of exercise, both as a preventative measure and as a treatment/therapy. As the crucial role of exercise and physical activity in the treatment of diseases and medical conditions is increasingly understood, health practitioners are encouraged to consider exercise prescriptions when designing treatment plans and health interventions. Just as the exercise medicine global health initiative continues to grow, so do the opportunities for well-qualified individuals with an understanding of research in this area. Formerly known as the Master of Science in Exercise as Medicine, the Master of Science in Clinical Exercise Physiology degree has been developed in response to this trend, drawing on Loughborough University's internationally recognised research on physical activity and health. The programme is aimed at individuals with a background in exercise science and/or physical activity who wish to enhance their scientific knowledge and skills to effectively promote the uptake of exercise, particularly for patients with hypertension, diabetes, pulmonary, renal and cardiac conditions, or those at risk of metabolic syndrome.
