The PhD programs in Exercise Physiology or Health Promotion recognize outstanding research achievements alongside the completion of a structured curriculum that includes courses both within and beyond the Department of Health and Exercise Science. These degrees demonstrate mastery of independent scholarship and broad academic proficiency. Typically, doctoral candidates dedicate a minimum of five academic years beyond their undergraduate studies. This timeframe encompasses graduate-level coursework, passing comprehensive written and oral examinations, and completing an original research dissertation with a successful defense. The doctoral program requires at least 90 post-baccalaureate credit hours, encompassing both coursework and research credits needed to develop essential research skills.

Qualification Requirements
A grade point average of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale for undergraduate and/or graduate work as defined by the Graduate College Bulletin is required for full admission. Applicants with less than a 3.0 may be admitted conditionally. Students must complete the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) prior to admission.
An undergraduate degree in Health and Exercise Science or an equivalent allied field such as biological sciences, health education, kinesiology, human performance, or health psychology is generally required. Applicants holding equivalent degrees and other baccalaureate degrees (e.g. Sport Management) will be evaluated by the department for course deficiencies. If course deficiencies exist, a student may be admitted conditionally, but all deficiencies and conditions must be removed before a student can be fully admitted. Removal of deficiencies is required prior to taking the comprehensive/general examination or enrolling in thesis/dissertation hours.
Scoring 6.5 or higher on the IELTS, Scoring 79 or higher on the Internet-based TOEFL (iBT)
