This profile corresponds to that of a student with the following skills and characteristics: dynamic, critical, creative, and interested in improving problem solving within multidisciplinary contexts related to physical activity and sport. Previous knowledge corresponds to that acquired in the “Master's Degree in Research and Intervention in Physical Activity and Sport Sciences” or the research profile of the “Master's Degree in Physical Activity and Sport Management”, which are associated with this doctoral programme. These include theories and models on health, social and educational services related to physical activity and sport, as well as research methodology. Those who have studied an equivalent Master's Degree in countries within or outside the European Higher Education Area will also be considered as a suitable profile, without the need for homologation, but after verifying that the degree certifies a level of training equivalent to the corresponding Spanish Master's Degrees.

Furthermore, access by this route will not imply, in any case, the homologation of the previous degree held by the interested party, nor its recognition for purposes other than that of taking doctoral studies. The suitability of applicants to this entry profile will be assessed on the basis of the information derived from their personal academic record and curriculum vitae.

 

Access to the doctoral programme is open to those who have studied different Master's Degree courses other than those mentioned in the previous point, linked to the branches of knowledge of the social and legal sciences and health sciences. A copy of the Master's Degree Final Project must be provided and must offer basic knowledge similar to that offered in the recommended access profile related to health, social and educational services related to physical activity and sport and research methodology. If they have not received training in research methodology during their Master's Degree, students must take a series of specific bridging courses at Master's level, as mentioned in the corresponding section. Students who meet the above requirements will be admitted to the doctoral programme and the Academic Committee of the Doctoral Programme will be responsible for verifying that the requirements for admission are met.

In the languages used in the programme, a minimum C1 level of verbal and written linguistic competence in Spanish is required, while in English it will be a minimum B1 level.

In general, access to doctoral studies is open to those who meet any of the following conditions and respect the above considerations:
