The School of Sport, Tourism and Hospitality Management (STHM) at Temple University is accepting applications for admission to the 2021 Fall semester. STHM in conjunction with the Fox School of Business and Management offers a Ph.D. degree in Business Administration with a concentration in Tourism and Sport accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
The program takes approximately four years (54 credit hours) to complete. The course work component of the degree takes two years and provides students with an appropriate blend of theoretical and methodological courses to support their research program. We have two centers, the Sport Industry Research Center and the U.S.-Asia Center for Tourism & Hospitality Research, that provide opportunities to work on research projects.
We offer a full assistantship that includes a financial stipend of $30K per year on a 12-month basis for 20 hours of services as a research assistant and/or teaching assistant. The assistantship also includes full tuition coverage and excellent health insurance. Students will also receive $800 for a laptop or iPad and up to $1,500 per year for academic conference travel. The stipend, tuition remission, and health insurance are renewable up to three times for a total of four (4) years, contingent on satisfactory performance in the program. Qualified applicants also have the potential to receive an additional research fellowship worth $2,000-$5,000 per year. Students also have opportunities to submit internal grants to support research and data collection efforts.
