Bournemouth is such a special place and it\u2019s an amazing environment for learning. The university itself is coming up in the world and the sky\u2019s the limit at the moment, and I want to be here for that transformation, to be able to have positive impact on the institution for future students to enjoy and benefit from!<\/p>\n<p>I love my course because it\u2019s practical and informative. I really enjoy the work and content as it is something I can relate to and relish the opportunity to learn more about the sporting world. The class is amazing as everyone is from different parts of the world yet we all have the like mindedness and passion for the same career path. The lecturers are extremely helpful and can\u2019t be faulted, they really have the best ability to get the most out of us!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5502\" style=\"width: 165px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/microsites.bournemouth.ac.uk\/postgraduate\/files\/2017\/11\/Weymouth-olympics.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5502\" class=\"wp-image-5502\" src=\"https:\/\/microsites.bournemouth.ac.uk\/postgraduate\/files\/2017\/11\/Weymouth-olympics.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"155\" height=\"207\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5502\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Weymouth Olympics legacy<\/p><\/div>\n<p>We normally have a weekly visit to a sports venue in the surrounding area and they are so beneficial, as they demonstrate key principles and theories that are directly relatable to our course work.
