Scholarship & High Performance Sport

The University of East London (UEL) is aiming to be the no.1 university for sport in London by 2015. To fufil this ambition UEL offers Sports Scholarships which support elite athletes through a flexible study policy, world class training facilities and a range of support services. By choosing UEL you will be studying and competing alongside Senior Internationals, Olympians and Paralympians currently on our Scholarships programme.

At UEL you will have access to one of the UK's premier sports facilities- SportsDock, which hosted the USA and Singaporean teams during the London 2012 Olympic Games. Our sports scholars also benefit from a dedicated high performance team which provides physiotherapy, sports massage, nutritional, psychological and strength and conditioning support.

In addition to supporting our students, UEL staff provide support for other aspiring athletes. Our staff deliver on the Newham High Performance Programme, Waltham Forest High Performance Programme and the Talented Athlete Scholarship Scheme (TASS). We also offer our services to local schools, colleges, clubs and NGBs.
