Welcome to the Chair in Social and Health Sciences in Sport

We explore the determinants and effects of physical activity, the implementation of physical activity-related health programmes, and educational aspects across various settings and target groups.

Portrait Prof. Dr. Susanne Tittlbach
“We are working on solutions that promote physical activity, improve health, and address social and environmental challenges holistically. Through participatory processes, we aim to empower students and researchers to contribute their own ideas and develop solutions for an active and healthy society through physical activity.”

Prof. Dr. Susanne Tittlbach

Our Focus in Research, Teaching, and Knowledge Transfer

The focus is on the individual and societal determinants and effects of physical activity, issues relating to the sustainable implementation of (physical activity-related) health programmes in various settings (e.g. universities, workplaces, local authorities, schools) and with different target groups (e.g. children and young people, older adults, men), as well as the effective integration of educational aspects into school sport and the training of physical education teachers.
