This program is structured around a core of required courses (totaling 135 units) and elective courses (totaling 9 units). The degree requires completion of courses comprising 144 units.
The core courses provide for theory, practical and clinical based learning, foundational studies in exercise science including areas such as anatomy and physiology, biomechanics, motor learning and control, exercise and sport psychology, exercise programming and nutrition. Students then complete specialised clinical training in areas such as pathophysiology, clinical exercise assessment and prescription and occupational rehabilitation in order to be qualified to deliver exercise management for a range of cardiovascular, respiratory, metabolic, musculoskeletal, neurologic and cancer conditions. Across third and fourth year students will develop and undertake either a research or clinical/industry focussed honours project.
From 4 August 2025, the University of South Australia will no longer be accepting applications for new students. Study at Adelaide University.
This program is accredited by Exercise and Sport Science Australia (ESSA). Graduates satisfy the academic requirements and are eligible to apply for registration as an Accredited Exercise Scientist through ESSA. Requirements for registration as determined by ESSA are available on their website.
