The sports Faculty of the University of Lorraine offers academic training diversified and professionalised to trades education and coaching

 

B. Sc. STAPS

  

      An advanced academic education, on both a theoretical and practical level, dealing with Sports and Physical Activities, from insights and analysis from the life sciences and the humanities and social sciences.

 

The B. Sc. STAPS (Sciences and Techniques dealing with Sports and Physical Activities) aims at:

 

• Mastering the disciplinary base by means of scientific, technological and technical skills in the fields of physical and sports activities (P/S A) mastering the subject bases with scientifical, technological and technical abilities in the field of Physical Activities and/or Sports (PA/S),

• Being autonomous in diagnosing, implementing and assessing projects within a professional field linked to PA/S,

• Acquiring general and specific culture linked to PA/S together with high-level cross-over skills,

• The certificate of a progress in a professional project

• The guarantee of a pre-professional experience in one of the following fields :

Adapted Physical Activities-Health (APA-H)

Education and Motor functions (EM)

Sports Training

Sports Management

Professional Degree ''Physical Activities linked with Facilitation, Organisation and Management of PA/S''

​

« Empowerment and Rehabilitation of Disabilities through Adapted Physical Activities » (ARHAPA)

  

Description and goals:

     The « Empowerment and Rehabilitation of Disabilities through Adapted Physical Activities » (ARHAPA) specialty follows on from the APA-S specialty of the B. Sc. Staps.

Two options are offered to students. According to their professional project, students will follow specific teaching units corresponding to the chosen option in addition to core courses.

 

 

      The option « Empowerment through Adapted PA for disabled people » aims at empowerment through an interdisciplinary approach focused on disabled people. The Adapted Physical Activity specialist is at the crossroads of social welfare, physiological, psychological and technical skills through Sport and Adapted PA whereas other curriculums are focused on the pathological point of view.

 

      The option « Rehabilitation of neurologic and traumatic disabilities and ageing through Adapted Physical Activities » is centred on global care (motricity, balance, cognition, behavioural and emotional disorders...) of patients presenting a neurological or traumatic disability and of elderly people (normal or pathologic ageing) through adapted PA.

At the end of the training, the professional will be able to integrate pluri-professional teams in which he will be responsible for the implementation, the coordination and the assessment of APA with the people concerned.

This option is original from a national point of view and will enable students to apply for jobs throughout France. The main facilities likely to accommodate the professionals-to-be are rehabilitation centres, hospitals, public health networks, medical assistance facilities for disabled people, the long-term care sector, nursing homes, senior citizens' associations...

« Assessment of Performance and Motor and Physiological Adaptations » (EPAMP)

  

Goals

      The EPAMP specialty is connected with Sciences-Technologies-Health fields. It is one of the two specialties of the STAPS Master.

 

     This specialty aims to be a transverse training across three fields: sports, disability and work. It focuses on the measurement of motor behaviour and adaptation to exercise and effort, on its analysis and interpretation and on the understanding of its mechanisms through different support sciences.

Thus, this specialty aims to be multidisciplinary (behavioural neurosciences, biomechanics, psychology and physiology), giving access to different fields of research, conception and innovation and is internationally-oriented.

Based on critical and complementary knowledge provided during their training, students develop the necessary abilities to meet the main goals of this Master's speciality, i.e the understanding of motor behaviour and physiology of adaptation as well as the technical, technological and methodological mastering of the procedures aimed at assessing these bodily functions.
