(Graduate Outcomes Survey 2025)

Kickstart your career as a sports therapist with a BSc Sport Therapy and Rehabilitation degree from CCCU.

What you’ll learn

  • Become an expert in the British Association of Sport Rehabilitator's (BASRaT) key competencies.

  • Get hands-on experience throughout the degree as you help people recover through rehab and therapy.

  • Support sports teams and individual athletes through our STaR Clinic to improve performance and stay injury-free.

  • Prepare for roles in sport, healthcare, private clinics, or the NHS.

What’s more, you’ll have the chance to get involved in major sporting events like the London Marathon, Canterbury and Whitstable Runs, and the Brighton Marathon. These events will give you invaluable experience, helping you develop your skills in real-world settings.

Taking a person-centred, holistic approach, you'll become a well-rounded graduate who is able to critically think, collaborate, and reflect on your own practice. With these skills, you'll continue to evolve as a sports rehabilitator as you make informed, research-backed decisions.

If you’re looking for a practical sports therapy degree that will set you up for employment upon graduation, then apply to study at CCCU.

Accreditation
Our labs are accredited by the Chartered Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences. You’ll have access to cutting-edge equipment, including eye-tracking technology, 3D motion-capture systems, gas-analysis equipment and an altitude chamber.
