Opleiding: MSc Performance Analysis
Learning purpose
The MSc Performance Analysis at Middlesex is a new course which has been developed by Professor Nic James with assistance from Professor Mike Hughes, Middlesex staff from the London Sport Institute and the school of Engineering and Information Systems and through collaboration with external software companies (SportsCode, Focus, Quintic and Dartfish).
This new programme is the only one of its kind in London,and itwill prepare you for the certification requirements of the International Society of Performance Analysis of Sport (IPSAS). You will learn to design evidence-based, sport specific performance analysis interventions based on a needs analysis, and you will gain the practical skills essential for communicating with athletes and coaches. Work placements (a required element of the course) with London sporting organisations will help put your learning into practice.
Our new laboratory facilities at the Hendon campus provides all of the equipment and resources necessary to learn the skills of being a Performance Analyst whilst also engaging in cutting edge research. The course aims to provide the experiences necessary for working in a professional environment which meansyou get to learn how to use the software that the top sports teams use.
Programme
Modules subject to validation.
SES4005 Performance Analysis
This module aims to allow the students to critically engage in the process of analysis of sports performance. It also aims to develop the students’ research skills so as they may generate analysis data for appropriate dissemination to both coaches and athletes. The ability to critically analyse research will be gained in order to design and interpret and synthesize analysis data and literature. Finally, this module aims to prepare students for the certification requirements of ISPAS.
SES4011 Modelling Technical Performance
This module aims to provide the students with the ability to undertake a technical analysis of sports performance. Students will also learn how to design and analyse technique in relation to an applied problem. With experience of a number of different software platforms they will have a good understanding of the different analysis techniques possible and know which software packages are suitable for undertaking different types of technique analysis.
SES4030 Research Methods
This module aims to develop critical awareness of research and development issues in the work place; to reflect upon the position of the worker researcher and the ethical issues involved; to develop a work based research project proposal supported by a critical commentary and other output demonstrating engagement and developing understanding of work based research.

Professional perspective and employment market
Career opportunities exist for well qualified Performance Analysts in both professional and amateur sports. Previous graduates in Performance Analysis who have been taught by Professors Nic James and-or Mike Hughes are currently working in soccer (English Premier League, English Championship, the FA); rugby (Welsh Rugby Union, professional rugby teams in England and Wales); multiple Olympic sports (working for the English Institute of Sport is sports such as cycling, canoe slalom, disability swimming, hockey, judo); squash (England Squash); badminton (England badminton) and regional bodies (Irish Institute of Sport) Work placements typically coincide with the sporting season (August to April for soccer, rugby).
Work Placements can involve weekends, holidays and evenings. The London Sport Institute has a number of links with professional sports organisations e.g. Tottenham Hotspur, London Wasps, Lee Valley, England Rugby Football Union, English Institute of Sport; each of which often take Masters students on work placements. These placements will be arranged by the tutor and may include an interview process. Students will have the opportunity to work with elite athletes within a professional organisation. Experienced performance analysts will show students their methods and valuable experience, which is paramount in elite sport, will be gained.
