This topical and market-led Masters programme commenced in 2004 and is delivered as a two-year part-time programme in Dublin, allowing students to study alongside personal and work commitments. This is achieved through modules being delivered over three days followed by eight weeks of home-based learning. Students travel from all over Ireland for the series of six long weekend modules which is then followed by their personal research project.
The programme attracts 20-25 students for each September annual intake from a wide range of ages and backgrounds - some newly qualified graduates, others are experienced exercise and nutrition professionals, whilst a number are looking to switch careers into this expanding area of work.
Why study this course?
The wide range of topical modules covered and development of analytical research skills opens up a diverse range of career opportunities for newly qualified graduates, facilitates progression and professional development for those already in their chosen career, or may help facilitate a career switch for others looking to work in this rapidly expanding area.
