    PhD Programs in Sport and Exercise Studies

    While engaged in the academic study of sport, students usually choose between preparing to manage or coach sports organizations or providing physical training guidance for professional athletes, students or recreational programs. Courses and programs can prepare scholars for teaching or coaching careers.  

    The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
