Subject

Exercise for health

This contemporary, professionally underpinned programme develops exercise science and rehabilitation practitioners who can deliver evidence-based interventions that enhance recovery, health and mobility across a broad range of populations. The Clinical Exercise and Rehabilitation Science programme is designed to develop a strong foundation for safe, evidence-based, and competent practice in the areas of exercise programme design, implementation, and rehabilitation. Students will develop the expertise to work with a broad range of populations including: injury, illness, disability groups, different age groups, through to sports participants and elite performers. The programme also develops a scientific knowledge base and practical skills to safely prescribe and manage exercise and rehabilitation programmes. Graduates from this programme would be well placed to gain employment working as part of exercise referral programmes, clinical practice, exercise medicine, rehabilitation programmes, and delivering exercise interventions to specific populations.

Post-six month graduation stats:

This is from the Destinations of Leavers from Higher Education Survey, based on responses from graduates who studied the same subject area here.

It offers a snapshot of what grads went on to do six months later, what they were earning on average, and whether they felt their degree helped them obtain a 'graduate role'. We calculate a mean rating to indicate if this is high, medium or low compared to other universities.

The Longitudinal Educational Outcomes dataset combines HRMC earnings data with student records from the Higher Education Statistics Agency.

While there are lots of factors at play when it comes to your future earnings, use this as a rough timeline of what graduates in this subject area were earning on average one, three and five years later. Can you see a steady increase in salary, or did grads need some experience under their belt before seeing a nice bump up in their pay packet?
