Hello! I am a third year student at the University of Chichester studying dance :-)
The Sports students definitely have a great experience here at Chi because of all of the fantastic facilities, great teaching, and the close knit communities of the teams and societies - they definitely know how to have a crazy time! Sports science is a course with great facilities for research and studying, and Chichester is renowned for offering a great PGCE course if you want to become a teacher. I lived with 7 sports students in my first year and they were all part of different sports teams, so they had friends with similar interests other than their hallmates/coursemates. I had so much fun living with them, and I know that all sports students definitely become dedicated and passionate to Chichester as a University!
The smaller University setting offers more personal teaching from lecturers and professors who are experts in their field from day one, and there is a good balance between theory and practical too. If you have any more questions about the University then please ask!! Good luck with your studies :-)
