MSc Sport and Exercise Nutrition

Designed for graduates in sports science, nutrition, dietetics, or related disciplines, this master's programme at Leeds Beckett University equips students with the specialist knowledge and applied skills needed to support athletes' performance, recovery, and health through evidence-based nutritional advice. Core modules cover sport and exercise nutrition, physiology and biochemistry, ergogenic practices, measurement and evaluation, research methods, and professional practice, alongside a major independent research study.

The course is delivered full-time over 12 months on campus at Leeds Beckett's Headingley Campus, making use of dedicated nutrition and physiology laboratories within the Carnegie School of Sport building. A significant credential is its accreditation by the Sport and Exercise Nutrition Register (SENR) — the first programme to receive this recognition — meaning graduates can apply for graduate registration with the SENR upon completion. The course is delivered by Leeds Beckett University, ranked among the top 100 institutions globally for sports-related subjects.
