Course Overview

This course combines psychology with sport management, exploring how the mind shapes behaviour and how psychological skills are applied in the sports industry. You’ll study human behaviour using scientific methods—observation, measurement, and testing—to understand how and why people act. You’ll also dive into the sporting ecosystem, exploring events, operations, and management opportunities within the UK and beyond, with a focus on how psychology supports careers in sport. You’ll develop transferable skills in critical thinking, communication, and scientific research, alongside industry-specific expertise in data analysis and presentation. Graduates succeed in careers across management, sports, education, research, healthcare, advertising, human resources, and social work. You’ll cover core areas including biological, cognitive, developmental, and social psychology, and dive into personality, intelligence, research methods, and historical perspectives. You’ll also have the chance to specialise through elective modules in your second and third years.
