Teaching

We offer a range of courses within which Environmental Extremes features. As a University of Brighton student, you’ll have access to the latest equipment, expert teaching and opportunities for field trips. All this, with our support, helps you to develop your interests and focus on future career ambitions. Here is a rundown of our courses:


Environmental Extremes has been a prominent feature within the curriculum at the University of Brighton for over 25 years. Only a few students took the ‘environmental physiology and sports medicine’ module back in 1984, whereas now environmental physiology features across levels 3 (Foundation year) to 8 (PhD) as shown in the infographic below. Typically see 100 students engaging with the subject across our three choice modules and placements on an annual basis.  Generally 20 students focus their BSc dissertations and MSc research projects on environmental extremes each year, so it is not surprising we do not struggle to recruit participants for research studies! It is no walk in the park though and we make no apologies for the demanding nature of environmental physiology modules. However, the enjoyment and learning the students gain from their environmental extremes experience here at the University of Brighton is truly memorable.
