Exercise Physiology Program
Master of Science (M.S.) in Exercise and Sports Medicine (Exercise Physiology Concentration)
About the Program
The Master of Science in Exercise and Sports Medicine (Exercise Physiology Concentration) is a 36 credit hour program designed to provide the student with an advanced understanding of the physiological and functional adaptations to movement. The program integrates traditional lecture-based courses with hands-on laboratory experiences. One of the major strengths of the program is the combining of the practical application of exercise physiology with current research findings. Students may also individualize their program of study by choosing from a variety of elective courses offered within many departments across the University. |
 |
The graduate program in Exercise Physiology has a thesis and non-thesis option. For the non-thesis option, students may choose to complete either an independent study or field experience (internship).
The Exercise Physiology program prepares students for careers in:
- Health and Fitness Promotion
- Corporate Wellness
- Cardiac Rehabilitation
- Strength and Conditioning
Graduates also pursue doctoral degrees in exercise physiology and biomechanics or other professional programs such as physical therapy and medicine.
