It covers aspects of biological and physical science, studied in the specific context of sports, exercise and health. Moreover, the subject matter goes beyond the traditional science subjects to offer a deeper understanding of the issues related to sports, exercise and health in the 21st century. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n The course incorporates the traditional disciplines of anatomy and physiology, biomechanics, psychology and nutrition, which are studied in the context of sports, exercise and health. Students will cover a range of core and option topics and carry out practical (experimental) investigations in both laboratory and field settings. This will provide an opportunity to acquire the knowledge and understanding necessary to apply scientific principles and critically analyse human performance. Where relevant, the course will address issues of international dimension and ethics by considering sports, exercise and health relative to the individual and in a global context. <\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n The course is available at both standard level (SL) and higher level (HL), and therefore accommodates students who wish to study SEHS as their major subject in higher education and those who do not. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Course Description Course Structure SL and HL Prerequisites: Nil Exclusions: Nil Sports, exercise and health science outline Sports, exercise and health science (SEHS) is an experimental science that combines academic study with the acquisition of practical and investigative skills.
