It is important to be strong and healthy. Our university has facilities for both indoor and outdoor sports. There are training periods where both novices and experts can practise their skills. A special fitness room is well equipped for fitness training and weight lifting. Other popular sports events at our university are aerobics, bodybuilding, volleyball, basketball, athletics, skiing, boxing and rowing.

If students do not want to go in for sports in a big way, they can just go jogging in the picturesque parks near the residential blocks of the University.

Participation in sports activities organised by the EMU Sports Centre may also contribute towards credit points. Students should check with their faculty and the Sports Centre to find out how credit points can be obtained.

Please find more information about the sport center activities as well as pricelist here.
