    • Professional Licensure Disclosure

    Full Description

    The Bachelor of Science degree in Exercise Science comprises four concentrations:

    • The Exercise Physiology concentration prepares students for graduate school in exercise physiology or health care professions.
    • The Exercise Specialist concentration enables students to prepare for work in the clinical setting, ranging from a career in wellness to cardiac rehabilitation.
    • The Pre-Physical/Occupational Therapy/Podiatric Medicine concentration prepares students for subsequent graduate school in these areas. The pre-podiatric medicine track is designed to be a combined program with 黑料社's College of Podiatric Medicine. However, successful completion of this program does not guarantee acceptance into the Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree. Please see the in the University Catalog for more information about the application process and acceptance criteria.
    • The Strength and Conditioning concentration is designed to assist those who wish to pursue a career in the field of strength and conditioning. This may include working with all levels of athletes in a strength and conditioning facility.

    The goal of the program is to prepare competent entry-level exercise science professionals in the cognitive (knowledge), psychomotor (skills) and affective (abilities) learning domains. Individual course content, objectives and assessments are structured to achieve this larger goal.
