INTRODUCTION 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.
