Abstract [en]
The Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH), University of Gothenburg, Malmö University and Örebro University hereby apply for a grant to continue the work within the Graduate School of Physical Education and Health Didactics, which started in 2011. Twelve teachers have graduated, many of whom are now working as lecturers in primary and secondary schools, and another four teachers are scheduled to graduate in 2018.

The purpose of the research within this graduate school is more specifically directed towards didactical issues with arranging physical activity and health promotion issues in schools more broadly, as well as in the subject physical education and health. The research within the graduate school is practice-based and will offer a foundation for improving the quality of a neglected area in schools: movement and health.We aim to admit between eight and twelve teachers/doctoral students during the spring of 2019. The graduate school´s programme, which will lead to a licentiate degree, are worth 120 credits, 45 credits for the courses and 75 credits for the research project. The graduate school is governed by a steering committee, with one scientific leader and one coordinator from GIH, one member from each participating HEI, and one doctoral student. On the proposal of the graduate school´s steering committee, the necessary decisions will be taken by each HEI´s faculty board. A particular college of supervisors has been established previously.
