Presentation

The aim of the bachelor's degree is to train professionals in coaching, animation, physical and psychological preparation, as well as sports managers in the federal and associative sports sectors, and within local authorities. Students are expected to work with all types of public (children, teenagers, adults and the elderly) and at all levels (beginners, leisure, experienced and top-level athletes). The training includes a combination of scientific and theoretical courses and applied and practical courses. A dominant sports option is emphasized, enabling the acquisition of recognized skills as a trainer and sports coach. Last but not least, particular emphasis is placed on the theoretical and practical aspects of physical preparation.

Due to the limited capacity of this program, applications from baccalaureate holders from the Académie de Montpellier, and from high school students preparing a French baccalaureate abroad, will be given priority.

Whatever the candidate's profile, applications must be made on ParcourSup.
