About 2-Term Pathway - International Foundation Programme - Continue to Bachelor of Science - Sport and Exercise Sciences (LM089)

Program Description

The International Foundation Programme is a one year full-time programme designed to offer international students an alternative route to undergraduate study.  This programme is suitable for international students who do not hold qualifications equivalent to the Irish Leaving Certificate or who need a further boost to their English language skills.

By the end of the course it is expected that students will:

  • have reached the required academic standard to study at UL
  • have reached the English language level requirements for entry to UL
  • be prepared for the linguistic demands of a degree course
  • have demonstrated the necessary study skills for completion of their chosen course

Upon successful completion of the International Foundation Programme, students will proceed to their degree programme. 

This programme will give you an in- depth knowledge and understanding of the key elements of sport, exercise, health and physical activity from the perspective of the sciences. Throughout the programme, you will study the science behind safe participation and effective performance in physical activity and sport.

The application of science plays a major role in the preparation of the modern sports performer. The effects of training methods on the physiological systems of the body for improving strength, speed, endurance, skill and how to perform under stress are constantly being investigated and improved upon by sport scientists.

The application of science however is not reserved for elite performers. It is well recognised that lack of exercise or physical activity plays a major role in many diseases that affect us e.g. cardiovascular disease, obesity, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis and certain cancers. In addition to improving performers, sport and exercise scientists are also engaged in examining the effects of various types of exercise programmes and activities on health and also on the treatment and prevention of disease by means of physical activity. They are also concerned with the psychological bene ts of exercise and with how to motivate people to exercise frequently and regularly.
