Карьерные возможности

The MSc. in Sport, Exercise and Performance psychology, the first programme of its kind at university level in Ireland, aims to prepare students for a range of employment opportunities across the four tracks identified by the American Psychological Association, Division 47 Sport and Exercise Psychology. Specifically, these include: Track I: Teaching/research in sport sciences & also consulting; Track II: Teaching/research in psychology & also consulting; Track III: Clinical/Counseling services to various populations including athletes; Track IV: Health promotion and working with clients but not necessarily athletes. Furthermore, there is a demand for training in this field for those whose ambition is to work in high performance sport settings. In Ireland and the UK, many of those trained in sport psychology have undertaken roles as performance directors, professional sport coaches and sport management. Thus employability is likely to be strong not just for those who wish to train as practitioners, but for those for whom a postgraduate qualification in this domain augments their other qualifications and professional experience.
