To address the growing opportunities in rehabilitation sciences, Loughborough University launched a new MSc in Psychology of Exercise Rehabilitation in Autumn 2024.

This flexible programme is designed to help students develop fundamental knowledge, understanding, and skills across all aspects of rehabilitation sciences in an exercise context. It will also provide the opportunity to gain an in-depth understanding of the psychological factors that influence the rehabilitation process.

Students will have the chance to gain practice-based experience and undertake an independent research project to explore a scientific question or real-life issue related to rehabilitation.

Additionally, students will benefit from the university’s research expertise and state-of-the-art facilities, including those at the National Centre for Sport and Exercise Medicine-East Midlands, and the National Rehabilitation Centre (NRC) at Stanford Hall, which is set to open to patients in 2025.
