About this course

Physical activity and health is a discipline grounded in the evidence that regular movement is one of the most powerful determinants of human health and wellbeing, with benefits that span cardiovascular disease, mental health, diabetes, cancer, and cognitive function across the life course. The field brings together exercise physiology, health psychology, epidemiology, and public health to understand not just how the body responds to exercise but why people are or are not physically active, and how health systems, communities, and policies can promote active lifestyles more effectively. It is applied science with a genuine public health purpose. At the University of East Anglia, this three-year full-time programme sits within a university with strong research credentials in health and biomedical sciences, and the programme benefits from UEA's connections with the Norfolk and Norwich Uni
