Summary
Whether you've studied medicine, physiotherapy or have a strong clinical background in musculoskeletal health (MSK), Sports and Exercise Medicine will allow you to specialise in managing sports injuries and illnesses, exploring the relationship between exercise and health, and get real life experience in the field.
At Nottingham you'll learn anatomy through prosection, gaining an understanding of both surface anatomy and medical imaging in our dedicated dissection room. You will also have practical teaching to help you assess and identify sporting injuries and illnesses in a clinical setting, as well as taking an evidence based approach to sports injury management. You'll also have the chance to learn about the public health aspect of physical activity and have the opportunity to complete your own research project.
We want you to be able to go where you want to in your career, and we'll help you get there with placements at real sporting events throughout you time with us and gain first-hand experience from consultant Sports and Exercise Medicine doctors and physiotherapists.
