Placement 3

Placement 3 will be the 3rd placement that BSc (Hons) Sports Coaching students complete as part of their studies. This will be a full-time placement completed in semester 1 year 4 over a 12-week period. The students will complete a placement in an area of their choice. During this period, students will also be expected to collect data for their Final Year Project (FYP). This module builds on the expertise that students acquired in Placement 1 and 2 and enables them to select a placement in their chosen coaching environment/industry.
