    Course Summary

    Leeds Trinity University offers a uniquely career-oriented BSc degree in Health, Exercise and Nutrition. It is perfect for students who want to be able to educate others in the science of health eating and activity habits, and who want to understand how proper and improper diet and exercise routines can help or harm the body on the deepest possible levels.

    You’ll learn how to measure, assess and interpret population weight levels, the way exercise patterns change over time and between populations and how people really eat – regardless of what ‘diet’ is the latest fad. You’ll be able to draw conclusions about the health implications of these patterns, and build u an expertise in using this data to help real people develop healthier, happier lifestyles.

    At no added cost, you’ll be able to test for a wide range of professional qualifications as you study. All of these qualifications will be recognised by the Register of Exercise Professionals.

    If you are changing direction after starting in another career area, you will possess valuable work experience and professional awareness. Many employers actively seek candidates with these benefits. Our network of contacts, a dedicated employability service and a reputation in the legal profession mean we also have an outstanding track-record of finding students legal employment.Many employers favour GDL students in an increasingly competitive legal job market. Through studying another degree subject, you will have gained many transferable skills. By taking the conversion route into law, you are showing motivation and determination by choosing law at a later stage than some others. This looks good to employers.
