Group: Does anyone know of any possible future doctorates (Ph.D or Ed.D) in exercise science, kinesiology, human performance, sport science, biomechanics or the like that may come to fruition? As of right now all I know of that is similar is the Ed.D in sports management offered from the United States Sports Academy, but that is more business oriented. Thanks.
Hi,
A.T. Still University has some online and hybrid programs including the following:
Doctor of Health Sciences
Doctor of Health Education
Doctor of Athletic Training
Doctor of Health Administration
I am a student in the Doctor of Health Sciences program. This site is great…not sure if they could be added.

I have a BS in exercise science and a M.Ed, but would like to pursure a doctorate in the sports/exercise science domains. End goal would be to possibly teach academically and/or conduct research (coaching isn’t an interest).
Thanks for the timely response.
I live in Tennessee. Middle Tennessee State University and East Tennessee State University both offer Ph.Ds in human performance (exercise science/kinesiology) however they pratically require you to abandon your job and live there.

Do you want to teach sports or exercise science? Or are you looking at a career in rehab or applied medicine? Most distance learning in this area is focused on teaching/coaching. For anyone who needs a master’s below are some we found… Read more »
Hi,
WE do have hundreds of online doctorates in our degree directory.
WE do list an online doctorate in sports management from Northcentral University Online.
Where do you live? In the United States? If so, what state? There may be hybrid doctorates in this area that are offered mostly online with some weekends of a few days on campus.
Tell us more …we’ll see if we can find any options for you.
