At these universities, Sports & Recreation at master’s level is a postgraduate route for applicants who want advanced study after a first degree. It suits students aiming for work in coaching, sport management, physical activity, recreation, or related research, depending on the programme structure you choose.

All 7 options are at public universities. They are spread across different settings, from major urban centres such as Changchun, Chengdu, and Guangzhou to smaller cities such as Shaoguan. Tuition is a separate decision point, because fee information is published for some programmes and missing for others, so you should compare costs directly with each university.

Before applying, verify the tuition fee, entry requirements, application deadline, language of instruction, and whether the programme matches your intended career path. If you need housing, scholarship, or visa details, confirm those with the university as well before you decide.
