Overview

Sports Technology combines the excellence of both sports' science and technology. This course covers industrial design, human factors and marketing for the sports equipment sector and elite sport.

Based in our dedicated, purpose-built Sports Technology Institute, the course focuses on design, manufacture and testing of sports equipment, clothing and footwear, and has been specifically developed to provide the sports industry with graduates possessing the required specialist technical knowledge and skills to improve existing and develop new sports goods and products.

Sports technology combines the excellence of engineering science, measurement and analysis, and sports science to relate the playing, or use characteristics, of sporting equipment to the underlying principles of product design. It reinforces this by providing an up-to-date knowledge of manufacturing processes and materials, to enable improvements in sports product performance and ease of use.

The course covers industrial design, human factors and marketing for the sports equipment sector. By combining a thorough technology education with a sound design base, our graduates are ideally placed to conceive and develop innovative designs and turn them into profitable products.

What's the difference between MEng and BEng?

The structure of the first two years is common between the BEng and MEng and provide you with sports equipment design and technology studies. The application of design and the solution of sports equipment and elite athlete problems is a strong theme throughout each course.

The MEng structure is distinct from the BEng course in the third and fourth academic years, providing broadening and deepening of the biomechanics, health and well-being, design and technology learning experience. It enables further development of the technical aspects and addresses the strategic and managerial challenge facing the implementation of new professional and enterprise approaches in industry.

Students studying on the BEng course may have opportunity to change to the MEng course if their performance in the first and second year is sufficiently strong.

Why you should choose us

Why you should study this course

With the world sports equipment market estimated to be worth over $126 billion (Statista, 2020), it is now more important than ever for companies to maintain a competitive edge. In addition to elite athletes demanding better performance from themselves and their equipment whilst minimising energy loss, there has been a global increase in the participation of sport.

To remain competitive, many sports related companies have identified the need for a significant improvement of understanding sports technologies and the underpinning sciences, to develop better equipment and products.

We provide students with the ability to design, prototype and test fully functioning design solutions, using Siemens NX 3D Computer Aided Engineering design environments, state-of-the-art additive manufacturing facilities, industry standard manufacturing processes, and sub-micrometre accuracy measurement equipment. The course gives you the benefit of professional engineering and/or professional design career routes and will allow you to develop products in companies across the sports goods sector, or start your own company and develop your own product ranges.

Upon successful completion of this course, you will have acquired a good understanding of the design, analytical, human factors and technology skills necessary to effectively develop new products. The courses provide an excellent foundation for graduates wishing to progress to professional designer or professional engineering status.

We are proud to be named the best in the world for sports-related subjects for eight years running by the global QS higher education league table, as well as the Sports University of the Year for the fourth time by the Times and Sunday Times Good University Guide 2025.

Professional recognition

Our BEng (Hons) Sports Technology degree is accredited by the Institution of Engineering Designers (IED) and the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), both licensed by the UK Engineering Council.

A UK Engineering Council accredited course is an important mark of assurance that the course meets the UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence. An accredited course is an important element for graduates to become a professionally registered designer or engineer. Graduates from an accredited design or engineering course will have achieved part or all of the underpinning knowledge for later professional registration as an Incorporated Engineer (IEng) or Chartered Engineer (CEng). 

What you'll study

The courses within the Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering are unique from day one with industry focused content, meaning you can learn the skills and knowledge to build a successful career from the very start. Whilst there are compulsory modules throughout the course, there will be an opportunity for you to specialise in a specific area through your optional module choices during the third year for BEng students, and during the third and fourth years for MEng students. Take a look at some of the modules you may have the opportunity to study below.

Project module assessments require written reports and technical presentations, preparing you for your subsequent career.

The proportion of coursework assessment is approximately 30% to 50% depending on degree course, semester/year and optional modules.

Placement year

The majority of undergraduate degree programmes within the Wolfson School of Mechanical, Electrical and Manufacturing Engineering provide students with the opportunity to undertake a salaried placement year.

If you choose to undertake a year in industry, you will complete a full year of assessed industrial training typically between years two and three of your academic studies.

Our dedicated placements team is notified of vacancies and opportunities throughout the academic year, and provide support with the application process to help you secure a suitable placement. Additionally, our placements team host an annual Engineering/STEM Placement and Graduate Careers Fair, which sees over 70 external companies attend, and gives students the opportunity to network and speak to experts in their chosen fields and find out more about future career opportunities.

Our students have undertaken placements in a variety of organisations including clothing and footwear, leisure, performance analysis, sports equipment, sports goods and sports federations and governing bodies.

Please note that whilst the department offers great support for students to find a placement, it is ultimately the student's responsibility to source and secure their industrial placement.

Additional award

By undertaking a year on professional placement or working in industry, you will gain an additional award alongside your final qualification. If you undertake a professional placement year you will gain a Diploma in Professional Studies (DPS) or if you complete a year in industry you will gain a Diploma in Industrial Studies (DIS).

Approx. 20% of the full-time fee

UK tuition fees align with the applicable fee caps set by the UK government, and as such they are subject to changes made to the agreed cap in a specific year. Tuition fees are reviewed annually by the University and are likely to increase to take into account inflationary pressures.

Tuition fees cover the cost of your teaching, assessment and operating University facilities such as the library, IT equipment and other support services. University fees and charges can be paid in advance and there are several methods of payment, including online payments and payment by instalment.

Additional costs

While the cost of your tuition covers lots of things, it doesn’t cover everything. For instance, this course doesn’t cover the cost of any stationery, printing, books or re-assessments which you might need.

Sponsorship and scholarships

All of our courses have an established reputation with employers in industry. Companies, therefore, target the School with placement year opportunities and a number of companies offer sponsorship, for which there is intense competition. Students seeking sponsorship are urged to consult publications such as Career Research and Development (CRAC)  and Engineering Opportunities.
