Regular physical activity is important for all ages and population groups. It is proven to help prevent and treat non-communicable diseases and improve mental health, quality of life and well-being. However, current levels of physical inactivity mean this issue is a pandemic. Therefore, improving levels of physical activity is a global public health priority.
The MSc Physical Activity for Health is designed to provide academic training at a postgraduate level for recent graduates from a range of disciplines (including sport and exercise sciences, health sciences, psychology, epidemiology, and physiology), intercalated medical students and the existing national and international workforce in the area of physical activity and public health.
