What you will study

Three basic modules provide in-depth knowledge of research methods, project management and development, and socialisation in all life phases. “Diagnostics and intervention”: On the one hand, this involves the theoretical foundations as well as the implementation, evaluation, and interpretation of selected sports-motoric and sports-psychology test procedures in all life phases, and on the other hand, the planning and implementation of evidence-based sports and physical activity interventions.
