EDHPE3002 Health and Physical Activity in Society

Students will explore the place of physical activity and creative movement styles in a range of populations from a health and wellbeing, educational, historical and socio-cultural perspective. They will develop constructs of physical activity and the range of health benefits it offers across a lifespan through participation in a range of physical activities. Influences of physical activity behaviours, health-behaviour processes and models, physical activity trends, and the impact of physical activity will be explored from a socio-critical perspective, in reference to a range of populations. Skills will be obtained in measuring physical activity levels, data analysis, research and ICT, learning and teaching in a range of physical activities and creative movement styles. Students will also consider the place of physical activity and specifically lifetime physical activity in various settings, not only the school setting. They will gain knowledge and skills in planning and delivering physical activities in various settings.

Commonwealth supported place (CSP)

A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).

2025 contribution amount* $578
2025 grandfathered contribution amount* $578

Grandfathered contribution amount - if you are a continuing student, who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

* For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.

Domestic full fee–paying places

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.

International full fee–paying places

International tuition fees are course-based annual fees and the unit fee you pay will vary according to the degree you are studying. To find out more about international tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule visit our fees website
