BSc (Hons) Physical Activity & Health at Edinburgh Napier University

Programme overview

The NHS is overrun with these diseases, but in many cases they can be effectively prevented or managed through physical activity. Yet, in 2020, 54% of adults in Scotland were not achieving the minimum levels of physical activity, based on our government guidelines . Our degree has been developed to teach our students how physical activity and exercise can do this.
