Hello, my name is Rebecca Cundill. I graduated from Manchester Metropolitan University with a first class degree in Sport Science and Human Physiology in June 2021. After graduating, I decided to stay at university to study a Masters degree in Sport and Exercise Physiology. With a keen interest in exercise physiology and STEM teaching, I hope this RISE Self Study Pack will be really informative for prospective university students interested in studying sport.
Hello my name is Zoe Sutton. After successfully completing the second year of the BSc Sports Coaching and Development degree programme at Manchester Metropolitan University, I decided to take a placement year to work as the Students’ Union Wellbeing Officer. As a mature student I am keen to ensure that parents and older students understand the accessibility a sports degrees provides for all. This includes my Manchester Met’s exciting First Generation Scholarship Programme.
