January 2013 OVERVIEW OF THE PROPOSED PH.D. PROGRAM IN KINESIOLOGY (CIP 310505) The following proposal provides the rationale and details for a proposed program of doctoral studies in Kinesiology, offered by the department of Human Performance, Dance and Recreation (HPDR). Below is an overview of the rationale, benefits, and costs of the program. Need for the program: • The program will benefit the economic needs of the state in several respects, including the preparation of future health care providers and biomedical researchers. Not only will the program prepare PhD level graduates, but it will also support the thriving undergraduate program that prepares dozens of future healthcare providers each year. Equally critical is that this program will stimulate the research and development of new approaches and new technologies for addressing escalating health care costs that disproportionately affect Hispanic and Native American persons. This will create new jobs and bring federal research dollars and human capital to the state. Furthermore, there is a tremendous benefit to the state when talented students migrate to graduate programs from around the country and from other countries. The human capital that we potentially gain is significant. • The discipline of Kinesiology needs PhD-trained educators. Recent Department of Labor estimates suggest the demand for college faculty will increase by 31% over the next decade. Kinesiology is arguably the fastest growing undergraduate major, not only at NMSU, but nationwide. With only 60 PhD programs across the United States, the available programs do not produce enough PhDs to meet the demand, including the need for PhD trained faculty internationally, nationally, as well as in New Mexico’s community colleges and 4-year institutions. In higher education alone, New Mexico is currently (2012) searching for at least 8 PhDs in Kinesiology and several others in related fields. • The professorate in Kinesiology has an underrepresentation of minority, and in particular Hispanic and Native American faculty. West of Houston, TX there are no Kinesiology PhD programs within 200 miles of the US/Mexico border. Arizona State has a health promotion program and the University of Southern California offers a PhD in integrative Biology. Thus, the implementation of a PhD program in Kinesiology at NMSU will enrich opportunities for diversity in the field, which is greatly needed. • Maximizing the efficiency of departments requires graduate programs. The model of the Highly- Active Research University is one that values the strength of graduate students as learners and educators. Graduate students are necessary for departments to achieve their academic potential even within undergraduate programs, and to maximize the efficiency of teaching and scholarship. The implementation of this program will increase the efficiency with which we currently train 500 undergraduates per year, also allowing for efficiency in continued program growth. • The public health agenda of the State of New Mexico and the Nation dictate the need for the program. The proposed program addresses critical public health issues such as prevention of obesity, childhood obesity, type 2 diabetes, and functional decline in older adults. Moreover, there is a need for increasing minority representation among PhDs in the health sciences. Consequently, the proposed program has support from the New Mexico State Department of Health. Cost of the program: • Revenue Neutral: The proposal includes redirection of existing funds in the College of Education and Department of HPDR to provide for 5.5 Graduate Assistants in the first year, and ultimately a minimum of 7 Graduate Assistants as the programs matures. See Appendix A for letter of support from the College. • Revenue Dependent: The NMSU Library estimates that additional resources required to support the PhD program will cost approximately $ $4,200 per year. However, the department of HPDR has not requested, and has no plans to request additional library resources. 1
