Örebro University and the School of Health Sciences are looking for a doctoral student in Sport Science concluding with a doctoral degree.
Start date: autumn 2021.

Project description
The university has a long tradition of education and research in the field of sports. The Division of Sport Science, as a part of the School of Health Sciences, currently offers a wide range of programmes at the undergraduate (Sport Science and Coaching, Sport Management and physical education and health as a subject of the Teacher programme), Master's (Sports Physiology and Medicine) levels. As one of three higher education institutions in Sweden, we also drive research education in Sports science since 2001 and currently have 12 doctoral students admitted.

Research in Sports Science at Örebro University (ÖU) is mainly conducted within the research environment RISPA (Research in Sport Science and Physical Activity), organized in four research groups. The current project is driven by researchers from ESPM research group (Exercise Physiology and Sport Medicine).

The PhD position is announced within the frame of a project aiming to investigate the effects of exposure to cold water and hot water immersion on physical performance and muscle recovery in elite football players after match and training. This study is carried out with an integrative approach, including physical tests as well as advanced molecular and cellular analyses of muscle and blood samples. The project is co-financed by the Knowledge Foundation, led by researchers from ESPM research group and involves a collaboration with the following partners: Örebro elite football club (ÖSK), Lithuanian Sports University, Picardie Jules Verne University (France) and Polar Electro.

The doctoral student will be supervised by Docent Elodie Ponsot (principal supervisor) and her colleagues within the EPSM research group (assistant supervisor).

The programme and the doctoral studentship
The doctoral programme consists of courses and an independent research project that you will present in a doctoral thesis. The programme concludes with a doctoral degree and comprises 240 credits, which corresponds to four years of full-time study.

Our ambition is for your doctoral studies to be stimulating and purposeful throughout the programme until you have obtained your doctoral degree. A thorough introduction will therefore get you off to a good start and provide a solid foundation on which you can build your studies. As a doctoral student at Örebro University, you will be offered a specially tailored seminar series, covering matters ranging from doctoral programme rules and careers to support during the study period and networking.

The place on the programme is linked to a full-time doctoral studentship for the duration of the study programme. More information on doctoral studentships, part-time studies and part-time doctoral studentships can be found in the Regulations Handbook.
