                 CENTRE FOR SPORT & EXERCISE SCIENCES



               The Centre for Sport & Exercise Sciences, CSES (formerly known as  Sports Centre) was
               established in 1986.  It was the first tertiary institution in Malaysia to offer the Bachelor of Sports

               Science degree programme in 1995.


               In Malaysia, sports is developing rapidly leading the Ministry of Youth and Sports to declare
               2011 as Sports Industry Year.  Sports in Malaysia is heading towards a new era whereby
               sports can be a source of public income for the nation. Thus local sports should be managed

               in a professional, scientific and systematic manner.  Sports Science is a field of study that
               examines  various  aspects  of  the  application  of  science  in  sports.    Practitioners  and
               professional sports scientists must possess knowledge in various disciplines related to Sports

               Science and are able to apply the theoretical and practical components effectively. This can
               only be achieved through formal education at college or university. Being the pioneer institution
               in Malaysia to offer the Bachelor of Sports Science back in 1995, the University of Malaya has

               produced more than 1,000 graduates from this programme since 1999.  They have been and
               are taking their role as leaders in this field, managing sports in both public and private sectors.
