Bachelor of Exercise Science and Human Movement
Course Code HBEM
Campus Footscray Park
Introduction
This course provides the foundation knowledge and skills for entry into professional careers in exercise and sport.
Course Objectives
The aims of the Bachelor of Exercise Science and Human Movement course are to:
develop the biological and social scientific knowledge and professional skills that underpin practice in exercise and sport science;
foster independent and collaborative learners who can communicate well in professional settings;
develop cultural competence, that is, the ability to work effectively in socially and culturally diverse communities and settings;
provide an opportunity through a structured Exercise and Sport Science stream to specialise and gain (Australian Association for Exercise and Sports Science) accreditation as an Exercise Scientist to provide exercise interventions for apparently healthy populations, including high performance and recreational athletes;
provide an opportunity through a structured Clinical Exercise Science stream to specialise and gain (Australian Association for Exercise and Sports Science) accreditation as a Clinical Exercise Practitioner to provide exercise interventions with people living with, or at risk of, chronic disease, injuries, or disabilities;
provide an opportunity through the more general Human Movement stream to tailor the course to suit professional and personal interests in exercise and sport, but in areas of that do not require professional accreditation.
Course Duration
The course is offered over three years on a full-time basis or part-time equivalent.
