Outdoor Adventure Leadership, BA (Hons)

Our Outdoor Adventure Leadership degree gives you everything you need to start a professional career. Each year our students take part in five, week-long, residential trips in challenging locations like North Wales, the Lake District and Dartmoor. On these trips, you’ll join in on kayaking, climbing, mountaineering and bushcraft. You’ll also stay in a wide range of accommodation - activity centres, bunkhouses, and wild camping.

What really stands this course apart though is its unique learning and delivery model. The five weekly residentials give you the equivalent contact time of a normal timetabled degree but give you the flexibility to live on one of our campuses or base yourself at home or anywhere in the UK. This makes it ideal if you are working or have other commitments and still want to gain an Outdoor Adventure Leadership degree.

Being able to study this full-time programme partially from home gives you more time to gain valuable industry experience or work on gaining national governing body qualifications. What’s more, with our strong industry connections with employers across the world. We'll support you in gaining further experience with our year-long or summer placement schemes.

You’ll be taught by an expert team of industry and research-active staff, all with years of experience. You can shape the course content to align with your interests or career plans. And by the time you graduate, you’ll have all the knowledge and experience you need to start a career in this growing employment area. Past students have progressed to careers in the military, education, emergency services, the NHS, and postgraduate research.
