- Description
- The Exercise Science major is designed to prepare students for pursuing professional studies in Physical Therapy, graduate studies in Exercise Science/Exercise Physiology or Biomechanics, entry into Athletic Training, Cardiac Rehabilitation or related specialized Masters-level programs, or for successful careers in the health and wellness area. The program is in the Biology Department and is solidly based in the natural sciences, thus meeting the prerequisites for most graduate or professional programs. Exercise Science students may choose to pursue a Bachelor of Arts (BA) or a Bachelor of Science (BS) degree. For students planning to pursue graduate school in Exercise Physiology or Sports Science, or professional programs such as Physical Therapy, the BS degree will satisfy most prerequisites for those programs. For students interested in Athletic Training, Occupational Therapy, or direct entry into the wellness/fitness industry, the BA degree will prepare them well for those paths. (Students interested in pursuing professional programs or graduate school should see the notes section after the course requirements below.)
