Olympic Park field trip

Sport Studies BA(Hons) and Sport Business Management BSc(Hons) students enjoyed a day out of the classroom on a field trip to the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

The trip was organised to explore issues connected to the Introduction to Politics in Sport module. Students were able to consider ideas around sustainablity, regeneration, class, exclusion/inclusion and political usages of sport .

The trip was enjoyable but also beneficial; as one student remarked: “this has really helped get some of the things you talk about in lectures into view.”

The trip was funded by the University of Brighton as part of our commitment to ensuring a great learning experience for all our students.

An evening social event afterwards was a great opportunity for students to spend more time getting to know those not studying the same course.
