The aim of this module is for the student to gain the knowledge and skills necessary to understand, interpret, and conduct quantitative research appropriate for their field and level of study.

The aims of the module are to:

• Develop a broad but comprehensive knowledge and understanding of rehabilitation sciences including of the general functions, context and management of rehabilitation and rehabilitation services, and of the fundamental considerations, issues and scientific principles underpinning sport and exercise rehabilitation specifically.
• Be introduced to the role of rehabilitation and strength and conditioning in the treatment and recovery from musculoskeletal injury, in the treatment of chronic diseases, as well as in specific population groups.

This module aims to provide students with the practical knowledge and skills required to either rehabilitate athletes or support the exercise rehabilitation of injured, ill and/or patient groups and critically reflect upon and develop their own professional practice.
