About this programme

The Master of Science in Sports, Exercise and Human Performance represents a highly specialised Master's degree programme focussing on research. In particular, the programme is characterised by its alignment on scientific methods as well as its strong direction into internationally used standards and the imparting of field-typical "soft skills" without implicating any sport-specific practices. The programme aims to enable students to work in research-based occupational areas and to make decisions in generating knowledge, diagnostics, planning and evaluating independently. The students should achieve profession-specific competences in leadership and communication skills, giving them the skills they need to be placed in leading and decisive staff positions. The Master's degree programme is a graduate course of study in which students earn 120 ECTS credit points. It is designed for undergraduate students who achieved skills in natural and behavioural sciences, including medical aspects of sports and human movement. Elementary methodological knowledge and capabilities in experimental and field research are necessary.
