Sport research
Resource for conducting research in Sport and Exercise Science studies. Whilst the resource can be used by anyone, it has been established to support undergraduate (Bachelor of Sport Studies - Honours) and postgraduate (Masters in High Performance Sport) students at UCNISS. There is considerable more information that can be added, this will occur over time, but feel free to contribute.
