The Doctor of Philosophy in Faith-Based Sports Management, Specialization in Youth Sports Development, provides advanced academic and professional training for leaders committed to the intersection of athletic administration and ethical community development. Students engage in rigorous inquiry concerning the organizational dynamics of youth sports, exploring how administrative theory, fiscal responsibility, and program scalability can be enhanced through a lens of servant leadership and stewardship. Through a structured curriculum, the program examines the socio-economic and psychological impacts of youth athletics on diverse populations, preparing scholars to manage complex organizations that serve as pillars of their local communities. The program balances theoretical research with applied management techniques, ensuring that graduates are prepared to address the unique challenges of the nonprofit sports sector. By emphasizing character-driven leadership and systemic evaluation, the program equips candidates to navigate the complexities of modern youth sports landscapes with academic rigor and an enduring commitment to the common good.

The Doctor of Education in Faith-Based Sports Management is an applied professional doctorate emphasizing advanced faith-based sports management knowledge, organizational leadership, ethical stewardship, program development, community-care systems, higher-education instruction, and evidence-informed professional practice.

Students may receive up to 40 semester credit hours of approved graduate or doctoral transfer credit. Accepted transfer credits are applied toward the 120-credit graduation requirement and may reduce the number of courses and the amount of time required to complete the degree. A student receiving the maximum transfer-credit award must complete at least 80 semester credit hours through the University.

The applied doctoral project must address a documented faith-based sports management-support, educational, organizational, or community-care need. The project must include scholarly research, an implementation model, measurable outcomes, ethical safeguards, an evaluation plan, and a successful oral defense.

DOCTORAL TRANSFER-CREDIT POLICY: The Doctor of Education and Doctor of Philosophy programs each require 120 semester credit hours. Students may transfer up to 40 semester credit hours of eligible graduate or doctoral coursework toward either degree. Transfer credit is not automatically awarded. Each request is evaluated individually according to: The academic level of the previous coursework; The relevance of the coursework to the doctoral curriculum; Course content and learning outcomes; Credit-hour equivalency; Grades earned; The age of the coursework; Official institutional documentation; The University's residency and transfer-credit policies. Accepted transfer credit may reduce the number of courses and the amount of time required to complete the degree. Students awarded the maximum 40 transfer credits will have 80 semester credit hours remaining in the 120-credit doctoral program. Comprehensive examinations, doctoral candidacy, doctoral residency, the applied doctoral project, dissertation research, and the final oral defense must ordinarily be completed through the University. These requirements may not be satisfied through transfer credit unless expressly permitted under a published University policy.
