Sports Dissertation Topics

Sport and Exercise offers a variety of areas to explore due to the variety of research topics and disciplines that can be investigated. This can include using your dissertation to research areas such as nutrition, performance enhancement, psychology, biomechanical adaptions of performance and physiology. If you’re composing a dissertation in Sport & Exercise Science, whether you’re an undergraduate or postgraduate, but are unsure of the route you wish to explore, some of the examples below can give you some ideas of what areas are trending in the literature and original areas for you to explore to help with an original piece of work or to extend recent research in new directions.

Sports Nutrition

Sport psychology, biomechanics.

Understanding how to enhance athletic performance has long been a topic of interest in the literature due to its ability to enhance – or in some case decrease – sporting performance. Many nutrition dissertations tend to focus on various diets, supplements or the impact of nutrition and training and the outcome this has for an athlete. Studies can take the form of primary or secondary – also known as experimental or review studies – which can provide lots of great investigations. It’s important to be specific in the type of athlete or population you want to investigate – such as a powerlifter, football player or gymnast – so you can collect relevant evidence for your athlete and utilise guidelines for their nutritional needs. Here are some example titles if you’re interested in investigating Sports Nutrition for your dissertation topic:

  • Is caffeine beneficial for use as a pre-workout agent in weight and powerlifters?
  • Investigating the impact of protein supplementation intake on muscle growth and repair in trained athletes.
  • What is the impact of CLA supplementation on reducing body fat in trained male participants?
  • How does caffeine intake impact aerobic performance?
  • Are fat burners effective in supporting trained athletes in reducing body fat percentage?
  • Is eating a balanced diet enough to improve performance in team sport athletes?

Sport psychology opens a wealth of different avenues for exploration; whether it’s relating to imagery, choking or mental health in athletes. We are currently living in a world that has a large focus on encouraging positive mental health and ways to improve performance by improving ‘mental toughness’ in athletes. As such, here are some ideas of the different areas that you can investigate:

  • Investigating the association between long-term sports injury and depression in semi-professional team sport athletes.
  • What influence does racism in professional sport have on professional BAME athletes?
  • ‘The Pressure Shot’: Examining pressure and choking in trained golf athletes in a tournament setting.
  • Performance-enhancing drugs and Olympic-level athletes: Is the use of PEDs worth a shot at the grand stage?
  • Homosexuality in professional sport: Understanding the experiences and thoughts of homosexuality in male and female athletes.
  • What is the impact of repeated sports injury on mental wellbeing in professional athletes?
  • Living sporting dreams through children: how parents utilise their children to relive their sporting dreams.
  • Drug and alcohol abuse in semi-professional sport.
  • ‘Strong is the new Sexy’: Understanding the shifting focus from diet to strong in female active participants.
  • How does mental wellbeing influence performance amongst elite athletes?
  • Understanding the association between culture and racial perceptions in football fans in England.
  • Differences in quality of life amongst semi-professional team sport athletes.

Physiology dissertations can provide opportunities to understand how the body reacts to exercise as well as a way of understanding short- and long-term effects. However, physiology can allow a range of topics to be used in collaboration with other subjects such as psychology and nutrition. Below are some examples of some physiology specific and physiology combined topics that you could investigate as a dissertation topic:

  • Exercise, muscle strength and triathlon: Investigating the effects of ultra-marathon exercise on professional triathlon athletes.
  • Investigating the impact of ageing on muscular degeneration.
  • Does biological age impact the likelihood of becoming a professional athlete?
  • Muscular strength and gender: How does muscle transformation different in male and female athletes.
  • Understanding the impact of asthma on trained endurance athletes.
  • Achieving optimal performance through metabolic training.
  • The impact of high-altitude training on aerobic capacity.
  • How does music tempo impact physiological responses to exercise?
  • What is the impact of smoking and vaping on recreational athlete performance?

Biomechanics can open up many avenues for investigation whether it’s relating to optimal movement in 100m sprint performance, or the use of prosthetic limbs to support Olympic level improve performance. It’s important to make sure you have an interest in biomechanics and are aware of some of the key data that can help you shape your topic. However, some of the most interesting parts of biomechanics topics are due to the potential repercussions that your research can have. Here are some potential topics that you might be interested in:

  • Investigating the different types of prosthetics on sprint performance in Paralympians.
  • Investigating differences in gait movement between barefoot and different forms of footwear.
  • How can biomechanics facilitate improvements in Paralympic Sport?
  • Understanding the role between sports biomechanics and sports injury prevention.
  • Examining ACL injury differences between male and female professional football players.
  • The role of artificial intelligence in sports biomechanics.
  • How does VAR impact movement patterns in professional soccer players?
  • Biomechanics of fencing: an investigatory review of techniques and injury preventative strategies.

Exercise and Sports Science: Literature Review

Searching & reviewing the literature.

  • Literature Review
  • Search Strategy
  • Database search tips

A literature review is an evaluation of relevant literature on a topic and is usually the starting point for any undergraduate essay or postgraduate thesis. The focus for a literature review is on scholarly published materials such as books, journal articles and reports.

A search and review of relevant sources may be extensive and form part of a thesis or research project. Postgraduate researchers will normally focus on primary sources such as research studies in journals.

A literature review also provides evidence for an undergraduate assignment. Students new to a discipline may find that starting with an overview or review of relevant research in books and journals, the easiest way to begin researching a topic and obtaining the necessary background information.

Source materials can be categorised as:

Primary source : Original research from journals articles or conference papers, original materials such as historical documents, or creative works.

Secondary source : Evaluations, reviews or syntheses of original work. e.g. review articles in journals.

Tertiary source : Broadly scoped material put together usually from secondary sources to provide an overview, e.g. a book.

The Literature Review Structure : Like a standard academic essay, a literature review is made up of three key components: an introduction, a body and a conclusion. Most literature reviews can follow the following format: • Introduction: Introduce the topic/problem and the context within which it is found. • Body: Examine past research in the area highlighting methodological and/or theoretical developments, areas of agreement, contentious areas, important studies and so forth. Keep the focus on your area of interest and identify gaps in the research that your research/investigation will attempt to fill. State clearly how your work builds on or responds to earlier work. • Conclusion: Summarise what has emerged from the review of literature and reiterate conclusions.

This information has been adapted from the Edith Cowan University Literature review: Academic tip sheet .

Steps in searching and reviewing the literature:

  • Define the topic and scope of the assignment. Ensure you understand the question and expectations of the assignment. It's useful to develop a plan and outline, headings, etc.  
  • Check terminology. e.g. dictionaries, encyclopedias, thesauruses  
  • Identify keywords for searching (include English and American spelling and terminology)  
  • Identify types of publications. e.g. books, journal articles, reports.  
  • Search relevant databases (refer to the relevant subject guide for key databases and sources)  
  • Select and evaluate relevant sources  
  • Synthesise the information  
  • Write the review following the structure outlined.  
  • Save references used. e.g. from the databases save, email, print or download references to EndNote.  
  • Reference sources (APA 7th) (see Referencing Library Guide )

When you are writing for an academic purpose such as an essay for an assignment, you need to find evidence to support your ideas. The library is a good place to begin your search for the evidence, as it acquires books and journals to support the disciplines within the University. The following outlines a list of steps to follow when starting to write an academic assignment:

Define your topic and scope of the search

  • This will provide the search terms when gathering evidence from the literature to support your arguments.
  • Sometimes it is a good idea to concept map key themes.

The scope will advise you:

  • How much information is required, often identified by the number of words ie 500 or 3000 words
  • What sort of writing you are to do eg essay, report, annotated bibliography
  • How many marks are assigned. This may indicate the amount of time to allocate to the task.

Gather the information - Before writing about your topic, you will need to find evidence to support your ideas. 

Books provide a useful starting point for an introduction to the subject. Books also provide an in-depth coverage of a topic.

Journal Articles: For current research or information on a very specific topic, journal articles may be the most useful, as they are published on a regular basis. It is normally expected that you will use some journal articles in your assignment. When using journal articles, check whether they are from a magazine or scholalry publication. Scholarly publications are often peer reviewed, which means that the articles are reviewed by expert/s before being accepted for publication.

Reports : useful information can also be found in free web publications from government or research organizations (e.g. reports). Any web publications should be carefully evaluated. You are also required to view the whole publication, not just the abstract, if using the information in your assignment.

Remember to ensure that you note the citation details for references that you collect, at the time of locating the items. It is often time consuming and impossible to track the required data later.

Analyse the information collected

  • Have I collected enough information on the topic?

Synthesise your information

Write the report or essay

  • Check the ECU Academic tip sheet: the Academic Essay for some useful pointers
  • Remember, in most cases you will need an introduction, body and conclusion
  • Record details of references used for referencing. Information on referencing can be located on the ECU Referencing Guide.

Database search tips:

1. Identify main concepts and keywords . Search the main concepts first, then limit further as necessary.

2. Find Synonyms (Boolean  OR broadens the search to include alternative keywords or subject thesaurus terms):

  • pediatrics  OR children
  • teenagers  OR adolescents

3. AND (Boolean AND  joins concepts and narrows the                search):

  • occupational therapy  AND children
  • stress  AND (occupation OR job)

4. Be aware of differences in American and English spelling and terminology. Most databases use American spelling and terminology as preferred subject terms.

5. Use Truncation (putting * at the end of a word stem will search all forms of the word):

  • disab * (disability, disabilities, disabled)
  • child * (child, children, childhood, children's)

6. "...." (inverted commas) use for a phrase

  • "mental health"
  • "occupational therapy"

7. Wildcard ? will search for any single letter in the space. e.g. wom?n will search women, woman, organi?ation will search organisation, organization.

8. Wildcard * can also be used where alternate spelling may contain an extra character. e.g. p*ediatric, will search paediatric or pediatric, behavio*r, will search behaviour or behavior.
