Guest speakers are just one of the ways we enhance learning and we invite a huge variation of influential figures to the school to speak to our students.

Recent guest speakers include:

And it’s not just visiting speakers who share their knowledge with Sport and Exercise Science students. Our own academic team have made, and continue to make, important contributions to the field and regularly contribute to student’s learning including Professor Jo Doust and Professor Nick Webborn.
