Purpose. Knowledge of the fundamentals needed for the activity of scientific research in the Physical Education and Sports Science. Material. The participants in the study were 94 students of the Department of Physical Education and Sports in the University of Pitesti, study programs: Physical Education and Sports (PES), n=40, Sport and Motor Performance (SMP), n=31 and Performance in Sport (PS), n=23. The experimental study monitored both teaching activity and evaluation of the subjects, in conformity with the requirements of the course syllabus (performance standard) and the instructions on the rules of evaluation in the credit system and the grade book filling in. The assessment of knowledge focused on: course activity, seminar activity, attendance and final evaluation. The seminar activity involved the preparation of 4 papers regarding the method of bibliographic study, the historical method, the survey method (questionnaire) and the test method. Results. The following matters are presented: comparison of the weight of fulfillment of the seminar activity requirements for each study program; weight of the assessment of the fundamentals in the Research Methods discipline in bachelor’s and master’s degree studies. The results of the differences between the groups investigated in the field of Research Methods and Methodology in the Physical Education and Sports Science highlight the comparative analysis of the median of the groups during the elective and mandatory activity and the final evaluation (colloquium and exam). It is also noticed that at least two means differ significantly at p < 0.05 in the seminar, elective and mandatory activity; insignificant differences are observed at p>0.05. Conclusions. The knowledge of the fundamentals necessary for the activity of scientific research in the field of Physical Education and Sports Science contributed, at the end of the course, to the outlining of a dynamic and integrative vision on the main theoretical perspectives and of some concepts concerning the applied scientific research.
