We supervise PhD, Phil and Masters by Research programmes, and the inter-disciplinary nature of the department is reflected in the varied research projects undertaken. Our postgraduates work in and across disciplines including: sociology, psychology, physiology, nutrition, and political sciences. Projects explore sport, exercise, and physical-activity, spanning theory, policy and practice. Together, we seek to understand how sport and physical activity relate to wellbeing, health, and a just and fair society. Student funding comes from a variety of sources, with a number of our students being recipients of research council funding (ESRC, AHRC) and NIHR scholarships. Our research adopts multiple disciplinary perspectives encompassing: sociology, psychology, physiology, political science, and nutrition. Together, we explore and critique pathways from theory, to policy, and practice, challenging conventional understanding of how sport and physical activity relate to wellbeing, health, and a just and fair society.
