The Department of Health and Physical Education (HPE) encompasses researchers in physical education (PE), sports science, nutrition, and health, with an overarching focus on physical fitness and holistic health across the lifespan and generating knowledge that can be broadly applied in physical/health education and intervention.
THREE research cluster groups have been established to enhance the quantity and quality of research output through developing strategic research themes, identifying potential research areas/directions, and producing solid outcomes to maintain and even uphold the research performance.
