Course description

Recent developments in sports technology have increased our ability to record and store large volumes of data. This course is designed to integrate contemporary methods of data collection around sport and athletic performance, with analytical techniques used to evaluate, visualise and present large data sets. While theoretical lectures form a significant part of the course, a large component will be project based where students will collect, analyse and present their own large data set. Students will be exposed to advanced technology and measurement methods as well as analytical software that has become the standard used by sporting organisations, clubs and teams. A capstone experience will be the development of an 'entrepreneurial pitch' focused towards the sports technology industry.
