Course Summary

The MSc Youth Athletic Development postgraduate degree at Cardiff Met provides you with the underpinning knowledge and practical application within the fields of youth strength and conditioning. Throughout the programme you will explore the fundamental principles of youth development, including growth and maturation, talent identification, and assessment and monitoring. Furthermore, students will study the science and application of developing fitness qualities in youth, covering topics such as athletic motor skill competency development, strength, power, and speed development, energy system development, and the pedagogical skills needed to deliver training programmes to youth populations. There are also modules dedicated to reducing injury risk in youth, and students will explore risk factor identification and programming to reduce injury risk. These core modules will combine a mix of remote online distance learning, and in-person sessions delivered during two one-week long on-campus periods during term 1 and 2 respectively. *Please note: Students will need to cover the cost of travel, accommodation and sustenance for the on-campus delivery. Work-based learning is a key element of the programme, to enable you to apply your knowledge from the programme in real-world settings and to gain valuable experience to use as a foundation for future employment. This holistic approach to youth athletic development, delivered by world-class researchers and practitioners, will provide you with the knowledge and practical skills for future employment within the youth strength and conditioning sector.
