About the course

The Doctorate in Sport Coaching aims to equip practitioners and related scholars with an appreciation of the symbiotic and synergetic relationship between theory and practice.

As opposed to a distinct research focus characteristic of a traditional PhD, the amended emphasis of the DSC lies in practice as both the recipient and generator of research. The DSC arises from a demand for high-level, leading-edge knowledge and skills training, coupled with increasing the use and exploitation of coaching research in practice. It offers a unique opportunity for professional and career development, focusing on applied and experiential learning within a community of practice.

Entry Requirements

There will be two points of general entry; (i) the doctoral programme (at the beginning of the MSc taught Level 7 component); and (ii) the PG Dip in SC programme (the beginning of the taught Level 8 component).
