Kickstart your active career and never truly work a day in your life.


The Bachelor of Sport and Active Recreation equips you with the necessary skills to apply yourself as a professional in a range of sport and active recreation careers. You'll develop an understanding of the impact of sport and physical activity in the context of a healthy lifestyle and gain a strong knowledge base in areas including sport coaching, sport development and active communities.

The versatile program of study allows students to choose a major in Applied Sports Science, Outdoor Education, Sports Business and Active & Healthy Communities. Pursue one of these majors to explore an area of specialised interest and focus your future career, or choose your own adventure and discover areas you're particularly passionate about as you study.

Please note the Outdoor Education major is not available for study in Festival Plaza in 2024. Please apply for the Bachelor of Sport and Active Recreation (Bedford Park) (245021) if you wish to study Outdoor Education.

This course is new in 2024 and has replaced the Bachelor of Sport, Health and Physical Activity.
