Nowadays, the so-called Physical Activity and Sports Sciences have come to be a relatively new dynamic field of knowledge. Change and evolution have become apparent in the different sport areas, due to the increase in the social value of sport training. As a result of the social demand, and under the Royal Decree 1277/2000, the UAX university offers the official university degree of Physical Activity and Sports Sciences.
The training of our students is based on individual practice and work in small teams; the acquisition of theoretical and practical basics; as well as the implementation of what has been learnt in teaching, leisure and health contexts; or in specific situations (taking up a sport, keep-fit or sports performance).
