Acquire advanced medical science knowledge and skill Develop human resources who can conduct education and research based on the theory of sports and health science.
In the Department of Division of Sport and Health Science, we will develop human resources who can acquire advanced medical science knowledge and skills and can provide sports guidance and health guidance based on scientific evidence.
Features of the major
In this department, we will develop human resources who can conduct research, guidance, and education based on the theory of sports health science from an international perspective, understanding the effects of sports on the mind and body at sports guidance related facilities, sports organizations, medical institutions, educational institutions, etc.
Human resources to train
Human resources who have expertise and skills in improving competitiveness and preventing / early recovery of sports injuries, and can instruct, educate, and research competitive sports activities from medical scientific knowledge.
Human resources who have expertise and skills related to exercise guidance based on disease prevention and improvement measures, and who can medically instruct, educate, and research exercise for maintaining and improving health.
Human resources who have expertise and practical skills in sports and health science, and have a specialized teacher license who can provide effective guidance, education, and research.
In order to train the above human resources, the following three are set as "ability to become a pillar of sports and health science in this department" .
(1) Advanced medical scientific knowledge
(2) Measurement and application of scientific evidence
(3) Ability to communicate with other occupations such as medical professionals
This department, which trains such human resources, is established on the foundation of two organizations, the Department of Sport and Medical Science in the Faculty of Medical Technology and the Center for Sports Medicine. We have a large number of staff who are active in the forefront of sports medicine science, such as active athletic trainers and health exercise instructors who are active at the top level in Japan.
Grades will be announced each semester on Campus Square (at the end of the academic year for students taking only year-round courses).
