Course Overview
The Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Sport Studies at City University Malaysia is the “Sports Scientist & Scholar” program. This is the highest level of academic achievement in the sports domain, designed to transform expert practitioners into Independent Scholars who generate new scientific knowledge to advance the global sports industry. This program focuses on Advanced Research Mastery. Rather than following a set curriculum, you will undergo intensive training in Research-Specific Abilities and Academic Writing, preparing you to contribute to international journals and conferences. You will explore complex “Themes” in the sports sector—such as biomechanics, sports sociology, or exercise physiology—culminating in an original Research Thesis. The “Viva-Voce” (Oral Defense) serves as your final milestone, where you defend your findings before a panel of experts. You will graduate with the prestigious PhD status, recognized globally as an authority capable of leading high-level research, shaping sports policy, or heading academic faculties.
