PhD in Kinesiology - Motor Neuroscience in College Station United States | Texas A&M University

Our doctoral program in Kinesiology, specializing in Motor Neuroscience, equips students for academic and research careers in movement science.

State-of-the-art laboratories support motor behavior studies, focusing on Motor Control, Motor Learning, and Child Movement. These facilities feature cutting-edge technologies for real-time data acquisition, advanced audiovisual stimulus presentation, and both human and animal research models. Students can also gain interdisciplinary experience through collaborations with:
Electrical engineering (robotics),
Computer science (AI systems),
Industrial engineering (human factors), and
Psychology.

Graduates are prepared for postdoctoral opportunities and careers in academia, corporate sectors, military applications, and research institutions.

With an experimental focus, our curriculum provides comprehensive training in the theoretical foundations of perceptual-motor skill acquisition and performance. Students can specialize in motor learning, control, or development, with research opportunities aligned with our motor behavior faculty's expertise.
