I chose Loughborough’s Applied Sport Performance Analysis programme because, as well as joining one of the best sport universities in the UK, it offered a range of interesting modules with a higher level of skills - such as creating high performance cultures - being taught and developed in comparison to similar programmes at other universities.

As an applied course, there is a constant link between what we are being taught and the work we do within our placement environments, which made applying theory into practice in a professional setting feel natural and offered a real insight into what it will be like working in elite sport.
