Taught Doctorate in Sport Coaching

Course Overview

The DSC Taught Doctorate in Sport Coaching at Cardiff Metropolitan University is a postgraduate programme designed for postgraduate students passionate about understanding living systems. Based in Cardiff, Wales, this programme combines theoretical knowledge with practical application, with a 3-year full-time and part-time structure. ​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. International tuition fees are £3,500 per year, home/UK fees are £3,500 per year, and a minimum IELTS score of 6.0 is required for admission.
