Overview

Master of Sport Analytics

At the elite level of sport, the smallest details can mean the difference between winning and losing. Those details come to life in the emerging field of sports analytics.

Designed in collaboration with the industry, La Trobe's Master of Sports Analytics gives you the skills and experience needed to excel in this exciting and fast-growing industry. 

It's an ideal choice if you're already working in sport and want to upskill or have an interest in data analytics and want to apply your knowledge to the sport. 

Whatever your background, La Trobe's academics and industry partners will support you to succeed.

Learn how to use data to boost athlete performance and wellbeing. 

You'll get hands-on experience with industry-standard technologies, such as wearable sensors (Catapult GPS and IMeasureU accelerometers), computer vision and video annotation software (Keemotion and Sportscode), and athlete management systems.

See where your new skills could take you. During your degree, you'll cover talent ID, athlete management, performance and injury modelling, and broadcasting and fan engagement. 

You'll develop an intricate understanding of cutting-edge machine learning techniques and use advanced analytics tools, including R, Python, and SQL – all required for a successful sports analytics and data science career.

In your second year, you'll have the opportunity to complete a practical learning project. 

You could work under the supervision of an industry expert or academic and hone your data analysis skills in a real industry setting. 

Previous students have completed projects with Tennis Australia, AFL Victoria, Champion Data, and Carlton and St Kilda Football Clubs.
