With the establishment of this study program, the Faculty of Sports Education and Health (FPOK) changed to the Faculty of Sports Science (FIK) and the Padang Teacher Training and Education Institute (IKIP) changed to Padang State University (UNP). The Sports Science Study Program is under the auspices of the Faculty of Sports Science, Padang State University.
