The School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences (SSEHS) was launched in May 2009 by Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal.
Research is focussed in the areas of Behavioural Medicine; Biomedical Sciences; Sport Science; and Social Sciences and Sport. Outstanding results were achieved in the last Research Assessment Exercise (RAE 2008), which assessed Loughborough as the best in the UK for sports-related studies and commended the School's world-leading research.
Our nationally and internationally renowned staff continue to collaborate globally with other academic institutions, centres and industry partners to advance knowledge in the areas of sport, exercise, health and wellbeing. It is this academic expertise which informs teaching across the School’s highly competitive undergraduate, postgraduate taught and doctoral programmes.
