903. Research Design. (3 s.h.) Prerequisite: PE 901 and 902, introductory graduate level statistics course, or permission of the instructor. Focuses on basic elements in research design necessary to continue the process of becoming a successful researcher in kinesiology. Students will gain knowledge about different types of research and strategies for addressing research questions.
910. Mentored Research I. (3 s.h.) This course exposes the Ph.D. student to the basic nature of Behavioral and Somatic Science research. Learning experiences will consist of journal article review, laboratory/field techniques, and subject or data collector exposures as directed by faculty mentors.
911. Mentored Research II. (3 s.h.) Prerequisite: Mentored Research I. This course provides the Ph.D. student with the opportunity to be involved in research, under the direction of the faculty mentor, as the assistant project director and as the project director for pilot studies. The student will gain experience in these roles with close supervision by the faculty mentor.
912. Mentored Research III. (3 s.h.) Prerequisites: Mentored Research I and II. This course provides the Ph.D. student with the opportunity to assume the role of director of a research project under the supervision of a faculty mentor. The research project will represent a piece of the ongoing line of research of the faculty mentor. The responsibilities assumed by the student will be comparable to the responsibilities of a project director of research funded by a research grant.
930. Seminar in Kinesiology. (3 s.h.) This course is designed to enable doctoral students to gain a perspective of the discipline, both historically and philosophically, prepare them for the issues they may face in the "real world," particularly higher education, and help them initiate their dissertation.
