The ports and Exercise Nutrition program was the first course to be accredited by the Sport and Exercise Nutrition Register (SENr), the national register for qualified sport and exercise nutritionists. It is academically challenging, vocationally relevant, and underpinned by evidence-based practice, focusing on the study of nutrition in relation to sport and exercise.
Students will gain a thorough understanding of the multidisciplinary aspects of sport and exercise nutrition. Upon completion, they will be able to apply for graduate registration with the SENr.
Whether one aspires to work in high-performance sport or in the promotion of physical activity, exercise, and good health practices among the general population or in specific communities, nutrition workshops and applied sessions will provide opportunities to develop practical skills and apply expertise. Students who wish to gain additional practical experience alongside their academic study will have the chance to apply for an internship in an applied sport science setting, working with elite athletes under the guidance of a registered SENr practitioner.
