This course incorporates the disciplines of anatomy and physiology, biomechanics, psychology
and nutrition, which are studied in the context of sport, exercise and health. This course is aligned
to the DP curriculum and open to all students. A combination of coursework and experimental labs
provide the opportunity for students to acquire the knowledge and understanding necessary to
apply scientific principles and analyze human performance. The course has strong international
dimensions such as international sporting competition and the international bodies that regulate
them. Ethical issues that exist within sporting competitions are considered. The comprehensive
curriculum provides excellent preparation for university courses including those specifically related
to Sport, Sports Science or Physical Education. NCAA is pending.
