About this programme
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) is an elite higher degree qualification completed solely by research. Graduates at this level will have systemic and critical understanding of a substantial and complex body of knowledge at the frontier of a discipline or area of professional practice. Undertaken over four years of full-time study, the PhD enables a candidate to create authoritative capabilities for independent research, demonstrated through the completion of a substantial thesis, or creative works with exegesis. Throughout their research journey, the candidate works closely with a supervisory team who provide academic guidance and support. Candidates in this course would undertake a research project within the broad area of human movement, exercise and sports sciences.
