that you are working towards professional accreditation with a relevant body (e.g., UKSCA, NSCA, minimum Level 3 personal trainers award or Level 3/4 fitness trainers qualifications).

In addition to the undergraduate degree, we are interested in applicants with some evidence of non-academic professional development in strength and conditioning/ sports science/ sports therapy/ physiotherapy. However, you can apply without this evidence of non-academic professional development and your application will still be considered on its individual strengths.
