Welcome to IMPAS
The inter-university Master Performance Analysis of Sport involves three European universities: Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg (Germany), University Trás-os-Montes Vila Real (Portugal) and the Lithuanian Sports University Kaunas (Lithuania).
The M. Sc. IMPAS course is an intensive programme where students will not only be studying a multitude of discipline-specific subjects, but also immersing themselves in education and training in an international context. As a result of this you will need to be flexible to the different approaches of study and practice which exist at the various institutions, as these varied experiences will provide you with a valuable learning experience. By remaining open to new methods and opportunities you will get the most from your study experience.
The master relies on the mobility resources of the Erasmus scheme, for students to be able to complete their academic programme in the three universities.
