Ibrox Stadium hosts another face-to-face week

30 January 2026

Our UCS BSc (Hons) Sport & Fitness students recently came together for an inspiring face-to-face teaching week at the iconic Ibrox Stadium, providing a valuable opportunity to connect learning with a professional sporting environment.

Throughout the week, students took part in interactive lectures, practical sessions and group discussions, allowing them to deepen their understanding of key course content while engaging directly with tutors and peers. The face-to-face format also encouraged collaboration, networking and the sharing of experiences across the cohort, strengthening the sense of community within the programme.

Hosting the week at Ibrox Stadium added an extra dimension to the experience, giving students insight into sport and fitness within a real-world, high-performance setting. Opportunities like this are a key part of the BSc Sport & Fitness programme, helping to bridge the gap between academic study and industry practice while preparing students for future careers in sport, health and fitness.
