l. Purpose of the Program. Notice of Intent to Apply for a New Graduate Program The Purpose of the PhD in Human Performance and Dance is to train scientists in applied human movement sciences and translational research processes that address bio-behavioral issues in a wide variety of populations and across many different settings. In addition, one of the fociof the program will be addressing health disparities. In recent years there has been a national call, through agencies such as the National Institutes of Health (NlH), the US Department of Health and Human Services (USDHHS), the Centers for disease Control and Prevention (CDC), etc., for a greater emphasis on translation of theory to practice with respect to the urgent need to address problems that are directly related to the mission of our department (HPDR). These include the role of physical activity in prevention of childhood obesity, type ll diabetes, and optimizing functional lifespan. ll. Need. Currently there are 60 U.S. institutions that offer PhD programs in HPDR (oko Kinesiology, Physical Education, Exercise Science, etc.). Within the state of New Mexico there is but one PhD program, housed at the University of New Mexico. Other partner institutions, such as University of Texas El Paso do not currently have a PhD program in our discipline. There are several compelling reasons for including a PhD program in Human Performance and Dance at New Mexico State University. These reasons largely fall into one of three major categories: 1. There is a national need to train scientists in and explore questions regarding the importance of physical activity in preventing disease and promoting functional lifespan. The NlH, CDC, and USDHHS are among the federal institutions that drive research in this area. The data regarding the increase in the prevalence of childhood obesity, type ll diabetes, and the increase in numbers of senior adults living with mobility disabilities all speak to the need for academic pursuit in these areas. Z. The unique element of this program will be its focus on translating evidence-based research into practice. There are few Exercise Science programs across the country that specifically train scientists in translational research. yet this is a growing concern of federalagencies. The University of New Mexico has an excellent Exercise Science graduate program that is highly respected. However, while their work is decidedly applied, its focus is largely mechanistic. By contrast, the proposed program will be a very nice compliment to the program at UNM and not a competitor. In fact, the emergence of translational programs at the Las Cruces Campus may provide opportunities for tremendous synergy between programs and enhance the visibility and productivity of both institutions. 3. As a major public state educational institution and land grant university, the adoption of PhD programs is essential to enhance the reach and therefore impact of undergraduate education and community outreach programs. PhD students, in the True arts & Science model, become apprentices of their mentors and thereby allow the academic department to accommodate a greater number of undergraduates and enhance opportunities for faculty to share or deliver expertise to the community. lll.
