Master's and Doctorate Program Sports Medicine & Science

The main objective of the sports medicine and science major is to foster experts of convergent sports medicine and science who embrace both majors, including sports medicine, which examines the exercise intervention method to prevent and improve physical fitness, obesity, and chronic diseases through physical activity, and sports science, which aims to prevent injuries to elite athletes and improve physical strength and performance. Basically, it examines the physiological response and adaptation to regular exercise, while also studying both the optimal exercise method for various subjects (chronic patients, athletes, the elderly, the disabled, and adolescents) and scientific evidence on the prevention and treatment of sports injuries. This is done by conducting in-depth research, including the use of academic activities and field trips in parallel. To foster the creation of experts in sports medicine and science, it explores basic studies, such as physiology, biochemistry, nutrition, and anatomy, as well as applied studies, such as exercise physiology, sports prescription, sports nutrition, sports and obesity, and athletic training. The major program also explores the methodologies, experimental methods, and statistics required for research activities. Graduates from the sports medicine and science major enter various sports medicine fields, such as hospitals, public health centers, professional and amateur sports teams, rehabilitation centers and sports centers, or are widely active as experts in various fields of sports medicine and science, including entry into doctoral programs, lecturing or teaching positions, research institutes, public corporations, and industrial complexes and companies developing sports equipment.
