Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Sport Performance Analysis

​The BSc (Hons) Sport Performance Analysis degree at Cardiff Met is an applied sport science programme that focuses on the understanding, improvement and analysis of performance in sport. The curriculum progressively develops students knowledge of tactical analysis, measuring technical effectiveness, and specific technique analysis within actual sporting performance using a range of modern techniques and technology. In addition, students will be introduced to behavioural analysis of coach and athletes, and the application of athlete tracking techniques.

The core modules in the Sport Performance Analysis degree are complemented and supplemented by modules drawn from relevant areas of coaching, pedagogy and sport and exercise science. These elements give the course a unique flavour that allow students to understand the theoretical principles and applied process skills that underpin performance analysis.

Students will be given many opportunities to develop their practical and contextual knowledge in training, coaching and performance that will allow them to evaluate and modify their own professional practice as an analyst and that of performers and coaches in a range of sports. It will also enable students to develop the specific, vocational skill set necessary to embark on a career in performance analysis.
