Competencies and objectives
Course context for academic year 2025-26
The purpose of the degree is to train its students in the following professional profiles: teaching physical education, sports training, physical activity and health, and sports management and recreation, therefore, this subject is directly linked to the acquisition of the necessary skills to get adequate training in each of the professional profiles.
Along with this, the sea has represented for the human being a context of undoubted meaning for its historical development. Therefore, the development of a pioneering and innovative agenda that can advance in the conquest and care of this fantastic ecological ecosystem is justified. The physical activity developed in the sea has been one of the most productive actions for man.

- AC4.2 : Fluently develop procedures and protocols to solve unstructured, unpredictable and increasingly complex problems, articulating and deploying a mastery of the elements, methods, procedures, activities, resources, techniques and processes of physical fitness and physical exercise in an adequate, efficient, systematic, varied and methodologically integrated way for the whole population and with emphasis on special populations such as: elderly people, schoolchildren, people with disabilities and people with pathologies, health problems or similar (diagnosed and/or prescribed by a doctor), taking into account gender and diversity and in any sector of professional intervention in physical activity and sport.
- AC4.3 : Develop and implement the technical-scientific evaluation of the elements, methods, procedures, activities, resources and techniques that make up the manifestations of movement and the processes of physical fitness and physical exercise; taking into account the development, characteristics, needs and context of individuals, the different types of population and the spaces where physical activity and sport are carried out; in the various sectors of professional intervention and with emphasis on special populations.
- AC5.1 : Analyse, diagnose and evaluate the elements, structure, situation and characteristics of all types of physical activity and sport organisations as well as the legislative and legal elements linked to physical activity and sport.
- AC6.1 : Know and understand the bases of the methodology of scientific work.
- AC6.3 : Articulate and deploy with rigour and scientific attitude the justifications on which to elaborate, support, substantiate and justify in a constant and professional manner all acts, decisions, processes, procedures, actions, activities, tasks, conclusions, reports and professional performance.
- AC7.1 : Knowing and knowing how to apply ethical and deontological principles and social justice in professional performance and involvement, as well as having habits of scientific and professional rigour and a constant attitude of service to citizens in the exercise of their professional practice with the aim of improvement, excellence, quality and efficiency.
