On Wednesday, 16th September, DCU PhD students in co-operation with Ms. Finnegan did their final tracking of 3rd students for activity levels and improvements. The 3rd years have been tracked over three years and this work is part of the Y-Path Sports Science research programme in DCU.

Through the Y-Path Sports Science Research programme in DCU, Ms. Finnegan and PhD students have been tracking the fitness levels of 3rd Year students at regular intervals for the past two years. The objective is to plot improvements and activity levels of students. They were first tracked in 2013, then tracked again in September 2014 and were tracked for the final time on 16th September 2015.
