PhD in Physical Activity and Sports Science
Sport has become an important social phenomenon. There has been a significant increase in the number of people exercising or playing sports in their free time, increasing by 21% in the last decade. Therefore, 41% of the population state that they do some sort of physical activity in their free time, and 65 % state that they would like to exercise more often.
The increasing importance of Physical Activity and Sports Science (CAFD) and its multidisciplinary characteristics mean that this area of study is increasingly demanded and of growing scientific interest. There has been a significant growth in the last two decades not only due to the number of research articles, theses, conferences, and scientific journals, but also due to the participation of researchers in international groups and, especially in projects regarding private and public sector investment in Research and Development.
