The University of Stirling has invested heavily in new sports facilities, new sports programmes, and attracted some of the top teaching and research staff in sports studies to Stirling. Sport has a high profile in Scottish, British and many international cultures. There has been a revival of interest in school sport while the achievement of excellence in sport has become the focus of study as well as media attention.

Stirling offers one of the broadest ranges of programmes involving sport in the UK. The Honours degree in Sports Studies is designed around three components: Sports Policy and Management; Sport, Exercise and Health; and Sport, Culture and Society, offering a breadth of knowledge from which students can specialise in Honours years.
