Sports Science (Master of Science)

About

The study programme revolves around the question of how optimised settings (i.e. interaction between different interdependent content areas such as the selection of medical exercises, training, social framework conditions, educational measures and organisational framework conditions) for successful, sustained health promotion can be planned, structured, implemented and evaluated. Besides taking into account preventive and therapeutic aspects, students also learn about ability development and retention, tailored to the specific needs of individual target groups. Additional components in this context include the various dimensions of the cognitive effects of physical activity (development support, rehabilitation and stabilisation of areas of cognitive ability), occupational health care as an example of a setting, and intensive training in qualitative and quantitative research methods.

An undergraduate degree with a sports science orientation (see admission regulations for details)
