The School is one of the oldest and very best academic departments in sport and exercise science related studies in the UK.   It is a multidisciplinary department, renowned for the quality of its teaching and research.  We have some of the world’s leading researchers who have national and international reputations.  This excellence in research feeds directly into our undergraduate degree programmes.  Students are equipped with the latest knowledge in their selected field, plus a wide range of transferable skills, and an autonomous approach to learning that keeps them at the cutting edge of their chosen career. 

With an annual intake of approximately 160 undergraduates, the School provides a close knit, friendly community.  It has a caring and student centred approach and aims to provide a challenging but enjoyable learning environment.  Students also benefit from being taught in smaller groups with more individual help and guidance than may be possible in a larger university and all have the opportunity for regular one-to-one tutorials.

The School is well resourced with an extensive range of laboratories and state of the art equipment for sport and exercise physiology, psychology, motor control and learning and motion analysis, plus some of the best views in the country!   

As well as getting down to their academic studies, we also encourage students to become actively involved in life outside the lecture hall, including joining the many clubs and societies on offer and taking advantage of the University's location between the mountains of Snowdonia and the Menai Strait and Anglesey - probably one of the prime university locations in the UK.

Lastly, but by no means least, the City of Bangor is a small, friendly cathedral city that offers a safe and affordable place to live with good road and rail links to Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, London and Dublin/Dun Laoghaire via the fast ferry to Holyhead.
