Graduate School of Sciences | Department of Interdisciplinary Movement and Training Sciences | Department of Interdisciplinary Movement and Training Sciences Master with Thesis

Profile of the Programme

The number of postgraduate programs in the world of Movement and Training Sciences is increasing day by day. This increase is not only in terms of quantity, but also reflects on the quality of the content of the programs, taking into account the developments in coaching training and today's needs. Developments and opportunities created the need for specialization at the graduate level. This graduate program, which aims to meet this need, aims to meet the expert staff shortage both private and public sector need. For these and similar reasons, the Interdisciplinary Movement and Training Sciences doctorate program is considered as a program that includes graduates of the related undergraduate programs.

Since the different departments in the field of sports today reveal the requirements of today's sports science specialist education, the graduate education programs are planned to include these different disciplines. From this point of view, the Interdisciplinary Movement and Training Department Doctorate Program focuses especially on elite performance and sports competitions and includes public health within the aims of sports. At the same time, the sectoral change experienced by changing the structure and requirements of the programs, sports for the disabled, prescription of exercise, physical activity and health, technology and sports are also evaluated within the scope of Movement and Training Sciences. It includes wearable technologies and virtual reality applications of these programs with the development of technology and becoming more accessible in the coming years. Biomechanical analysis, global positioning system measurements, training monitoring, movement and match analysis etc. The importance of performance tests and measurements, including sports and technological developments, is also increasing. The awareness of the society in terms of exercise and sports, along with physical fitness, which targets health problems that concern all segments of society (children, pregnant women, adolescents, the elderly, disabled classes, etc.), can make physical activity and sports issues more workable. However, the structure of sports, which aims to find solutions to the problems of the majority, has become to examine the problems of individuals and some special groups. For these reasons, the aims of this program in the following years reveal a structure compatible with these concepts. At this point, its structure that brings together different disciplines (exercise physiology, sports approaches for the disabled, training science, nutrition, sports biomechanics, sports sociology, physical activity, exercise and sports psychology, etc.) allows graduate students to advance in a wide range of their desired fields of expertise.

Recognition of Prior Learning

Depending on the degrees awarded, theoretical or practical courses taken as part of a degree (completed or not completed) may lead to recognition of these as prior learning by the programme administration. The students who have taken courses in another institution in Turkey or abroad can ask for credit and grade transfer. The executive boards of relevant programme will decide on the courses to be transferred covering students' entire academic program once and for all with the condition that the request for transfer be made within the first week of the academic year, the requests cannot be repeated.

Graduation Requirements

Occupational Profiles of Graduates

The Interdisciplinary Movement and Training Sciences Master's Program with Thesis aims at scientific specialization that deals with different subjects within the field of Movement and Training Sciences, especially in accordance with the interdisciplinary character of health sciences, engineering and science. In order for the candidates who want to participate in the graduate program, especially knowing that the source of many diseases from obesity to diabetes is also caused by sedentary life today, in order to do the right movement elements, developing biomechanical study areas by creating a working environment in cooperation with engineering fields, on the other hand, biology and chemistry under the natural sciences. It is also very important in terms of health studies in the field of biochemistry and biochemistry. In addition, with its performance aspect, it is in a structure that can be involved in interdisciplinary work with elite athletes and sports teams in top leagues. With the interdisciplinary working environment, it provides the opportunity to produce, design, manage and evaluate and measure the individual, social, cultural, health and economic effects of the contents they produce, taking into account the theoretical foundations and interdisciplinary approach. With its interdisciplinary feature, the Movement and Training Sciences Master's Program with Thesis provides the opportunity to privatize the undergraduate graduation study as a new field of study, and supports the preparation of related science fields both in terms of social health and professional elite athletes on an academic and sectoral basis. In this context, apart from sports sciences, graduates who have received undergraduate education in health sciences, science and engineering sciences will make a difference by customizing their professional and academic skills in professional life, and the qualified and versatile gains that graduates gain from the program will be in the field of sports in public institutions, as well as in private federations and professional / professional / will be able to work in amateur sports clubs.
