About sport and exercise science

There’s nothing like feeling at the top of your game. And, as a sport and exercise scientist, you’ll be helping others feel on top of theirs. With a degree from ACU, you’ll be able to help elite athletes achieve peak performance, assist those with chronic disease to find optimal health, and inspire children to enjoy a life of fitness and wellbeing. That’s why we rank 40 in sport science globally, and equal first for human movement and sports science research in Australia.

Expert teaching

Become your best by learning from the best. Our lecturers are experts in their fields and can give you access to some serious industry connections including Cricket Australia, the Australian Ballet, Gymnastics Australia and major national sporting teams. 

Professional recognition

You'll have the opportunity to receive accreditation with two national bodies: the Australian Strength and Conditioning Association, and Exercise and Sports Science Australia. This will open up networking and professional development opportunities, allowing you to get off to a flying start in your career.

Innovative facilities

Take your skills to the next level when you learn in our state-of-the-art facilities, including fully equipped gyms and exercise science labs. Students studying a Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology also have the opportunity to put theory into practice at our on-campus clinics, supervised by ACU's team of Accredited Exercise Physiologists.
