Details
The research-oriented Master's programme analyses and reflects on the social framework conditions of institutions, organisations and systems, control and development in the context of prevention and rehabilitation and psychosocial health through exercise and sport.
At the level of sport science, the problems and tasks arising from the processes of demographic change and increasing physical inactivity are addressed. The influencing factors of individual learning and performance development as well as societal and individual influencing factors are examined in the context of physical-sporting activity at different ages.
The Master's programme offers the possibility to specialise. One of the specialisations "Prevention/Rehabilitation" and "Psychosocial Health" can be completed.
Graduates have in-depth knowledge and further professional skills. Adequate professional fields for graduates are in the area of preventive and rehabilitative sport and exercise measures as well as in university research.
In addition, the Master's programme imparts competences beyond the specialist knowledge for taking up doctoral studies.
