Dont know too much about the course but the job prospects would be developing equipment/clothing/apparal etc for increasing sports performance aswell as monitoring the effects of certain condition on an athlete.I'm sure he could get a job working for lucozade sport developing sprts drinks or underarmour or even get a job for a professional sports team as their sports advisor or whatever you wanna call it.
