The programme operates a flexible approach to learning that is based around the concept of blended (in person and online) delivery.
A variety of learning and teaching approaches are used to support learning opportunities. These include independent research activity, one to one supervision, workshops, work-based learning, critical friend feedback, self-audits, independent and guided critical reflection. All of these approaches will be associated with professional learning within the real-world settings of each student.
Modules are assessed using a combination of coursework assessments to include research papers, reports, reflective commentaries and viva voce examination. The research component of the award will be evaluated using a formal viva vice examination.
Each student will be allocated a project supervisor and supervisory team (who will specifically support the research programme) and an academic mentor who will support their development from a broader perspective. Engagement with these key individuals will be completed in a flexible way that is aimed to optimally engage the student with their learning journey.
Seminars and tutorials are aimed at supporting both the learning opportunities included in the core programme modules and to facilitate the processes in and around the completion of the research projects. Seminars and tutorials will be led by both tutors and students on the programme to facilitate peer to peer learning. The blended approach to delivery of these aspects of the curriculum will ensure that all students can engage in individual and small group learning.
Lectures and other key content will be delivered by a mixture of academic experts and professional individuals who are active within high performance sport or sports related organisations. Research and high level professional experience and competency will be a key underpinning of all individuals involved in the programme.
The School in based in the largest custom-built Sport and Exercise facility in the UK, with state of the art research labs dedicated to exercise testing and sample analysis across the spectrum of sport and exercise sciences including: physiology, biochemistry, psychophysiology, biomechanics, sport psychology, motor skills, immunology, muscle mechanics and the neurophysiology of movement. In addition, the School uses a wide range of practical spaces for professional and vocational related research.
Assessment methods.
All of the assessment on this programme is focussed around the preparation, delivery and evaluation of original research projects within a professional, organisational and/or developmental context. Assessments completed in the core modules delivered in year 1 provide clear direction to both the specific learning and development journey for each student as well as the creation of the programme of research. The final modules assessments enable students to represent their own high-level reflections on both the project outcomes, their application and the experience of learning on the programme. A viva voce enables students to present and discuss their research with experts.
The programme attempts to enhance the employability of graduates through doctoral level research training relevant to professional practice. The development of research skills, critical analysis, problem solving, innovation, project-management, dissemination of information, development of professional practice standards and planning, directing and evaluating their own learning to a level commensurate with doctoral study will facilitate career transitions and progression. Potential careers for those completing the programme would include management and leadership roles in high level sports organisations.
Doctoral level qualifications are becoming increasingly important for roles within professional sport and other sport related occupations. High level thinking and problem-solving skills are attributes that are important for senior figures in organisations. The doctoral programme is focussed on the development of such skills and as such will provide you with key characteristics that are needed in today’s competitive career market.

Programme Structure
The programme comprises three key elements:
The programme comprises of the undertaking of an original research project of 3 years duration full time (6 years duration part time). Doctoral researchers may pursue the programme either full time or part time by pursuing research at the University at an external place of employment or with/at a University approved partner.
Doctoral researchers for the PhD in Sports Science are examined in two parts.
The first part is a thesis which is an original body of work representing the methods and results of the research project. The maximum word limit is 100,000 for the main text. The word limit does not include appendices (if any), essential footnotes, introductory parts and statements or the bibliography and index.
The second part is an oral examination ( viva voce ).
Doctoral Researcher Supervision and Support
Doctoral researchers will be supervised by a supervisory team. Where appropriate, staff from Colleges/Schools other than the ‘home’ Department/School (other Colleges/Schools) within the University will contribute to cognate research areas. There may also be supervisors from an industrial partner.
The Primary/First Supervisor will normally be the main contact throughout the doctoral research journey and will have overall responsibility for academic supervision. The academic input of the Secondary Supervisor will vary from case to case. The principal role of the Secondary Supervisor is often as a first port of call if the Primary/First Supervisor becomes unavailable. The supervisory team may also include a supervisor from industry or a specific area of professional practice to support the research. External supervisors may also be drawn from other Universities.
The primary supervisor will provide pastoral support. If necessary the primary supervisor will refer the doctoral researcher to other sources of support (e.g. Wellbeing, Disability, Money Advice, IT, Library, Students’ Union, Academic Services, Student Support Services, Careers Centre).
Programme Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this programme, doctoral researchers should be able to:
Knowledge & Understanding
Attitudes and values
Research Skills

Doctoral student's dissertation evaluates effectiveness of adding DEI course to undergraduate curriculum.
September 3, 2024 | By Brenda Gillen
Jenna Altomare, a doctoral student in the University of Northern Colorado's Social Psychology of Sport and Physical Activity program , is incorporating a social justice lens into her degree. She arrived at UNC determined to provide support for the LGBTQ+ community and has since broadened her scope to a variety of marginalized groups.
During her university search, a phone call with Professor Scott Douglas in the College of Natural and Health Sciences ' Department of Kinesiology, Nutrition and Dietetics convinced Altomare her research would find support at UNC. Now, Douglas is her dissertation adviser.
"Growing up, I faced hate and discrimination simply for being myself. This personal experience inspired my master's thesis, a meta-analysis on LGBTQ+ safe spaces and inclusion, driven by my deep passion for supporting others like me," she said.
One way she's found to help others is by designing and teaching a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) course.
"The DEI course prepared undergraduate students in Sport and Exercise Science programs for their future work by learning about social justice advocacy, allyship, privilege and bias," Altomare said.
In her dissertation, "Integrating Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Into an Undergraduate Sport and Exercise Science Program: A Holistic Case Study Utilizing Social Justice Education," she'll use multiple data sources to evaluate the course's development, implementation and impact. Some epiphanies occurred during the pilot class last spring. One student learned how to support their transgender and non-binary friends, and several others said they'd never before considered themselves as having privilege.
"I believe my dissertation will demonstrate the significant need for this class and the substantial benefits students derived from its content. This course offers valuable insights to students across all degree programs and students from various backgrounds, religions and cultures,” she said.
Her dissertation topic meets Douglas' challenge to his doctoral students to do something unique and “change the world.”
"Jenna wants to dig into this subject matter and change things for the better for athletes who are different. She's very curious and wants to do things right, so she takes feedback and incorporates it into her teaching and research. One strength is her willingness to learn. I'm her adviser, but she's actually the expert in transgender athletes in sport. I want to hear what she's thinking, and then we discuss it logically and how it might present in a research project or in her teaching. I give her tidbits, little nuggets from my own experience to help enhance what she's learning about how to teach," Douglas said.
He believes her work has the potential to help coaches overcome their biases and become more accepting of coaching everyone. He noted discussions about making the DEI class available for UNC students in other majors.
"My mantra is 'sport for all.' As an athlete with a disability, I had to break into that world from a different angle. Sport is growing, but we're excluding a lot of people. It's important that we change the world through the benefits of sport, and then hopefully it trickles positively to the rest of society, and we start to get more inclusive sport environments," Douglas said.
Besides her role as a student, Altomare has worked as a graduate instructor, graduate assistant for the Graduate School and office assistant at the Campus Recreation Center. She's certified in teaching, personal training and CPR. Additionally, she's on the U.S. Center for Coaching Excellence's DEI committee, serves on the Society of Health and Physical Educators (SHAPE) board and is a member of the UNC Unified club, which is a Special Olympics Colorado affiliate.
She describes her work as "spreading seeds" and gave an example of how she made the happy discovery of one taking root. After explaining gender-neutral locker rooms and why they're essential in her first SHAPE conference presentation, she learned the following year that a prior attendee had convinced their school to provide them for students. In 2021 and 2023, SHAPE published her articles "LGBTQ+ Diversity and Representation in Health and Physical Activity" and "Transgender-Inclusive Physical Education." After graduating next year, Altomare aims to continue educating about these topics through speeches and written works.
She said one stunning statistic drives her passion: An LGBTQ+ youth with one safe adult in their life — someone they can trust, talk to or lean on — is 40% less likely to commit suicide.
"If I can help coaches and teachers learn how to support these individuals, hopefully, they could be that person for someone and that could save a life," Altomare said.

Students can then utilise the knowledge gained and apply this to advancing their coaching skills across a wide range of sports.
The aim of this module is to introduce the underlying theoretical frameworks of health and fitness, to provide students with the confidence and practical skills to deliver effective training sessions. Students will develop their coaching knowledge through a variety of topics, ranging from the benefits and risks of physical activity, the development and maintenance of health, fitness, and understand how to optimise and monitor sports performance. The theoretical sessions will support students to undertake complex and routine practical performance tasks, orientated around developing effective coaching skills, both on an individual and group basis.
To introduce and apply key scientific concepts and principles across the three main sports science disciplines of physiology, psychology and biomechanics. Students will gain a broad understanding of human movement, physiological mechanisms that underpin these movements and core psychological concepts that affect health and sporting performance. Students will learn how to work effectively in a team by carrying out practical investigations in all three sport and exercise disciplines.
This module is aimed at transforming the personal and professional outcomes of undergraduate students at Middlesex University. By working in partnership within and beyond sporting disciplines, learners will be challenged to transfer skills and harness free-thinking knowledge from a range of inter-related sectors. Utilising multi-department collaboration, students will harness expansive information from experts within Support and Wellbeing, Employability, Learning Enhancement and the Students Union through a practice-oriented educational environment. Through applying broader educational principles, students will have new opportunities to develop innovative skills that inspire a life-long aptitude for individually and co-operatively solving problems within inclusive socio-economic development, the sustainability of communities and the underlying concepts of equity, health and wellbeing.
This module builds on the personal and professional outcomes of undergraduate students that were secured at level 4.
