Sports Science and Management Degree Programme

At present, 91��ý is lacking sports professionals with technical skills and an administrative background. There is a need for world-class sports professionals who can guide 91��ýn athletes towards National and International level achievements. Most of the school-level athletes, with their dedication and commitments toward sports, fail to further their higher education. If these athletes can be given an opportunity to further their education in Sports Science, they can utilize the knowledge to plan their careers successfully while contributing to the development of sports in the country.

Brief History

Prof. Sudantha Liyanage, the present Dean of the Faculty of Applied Sciences, took the initiative to introduce the Sports Science and Management Degree Programme, in an attempt to bridge the existing gaps in Sports Education in the country.

The degree programme is offered by the Faculty of Applied Sciences in collaboration with Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Faculty of Management and Commerce, Faculty of Medical Sciences and Gampaha Wickramarachchi Ayurveda Institute.
