Your advising folder will be kept at the College of Education where you will be advised until you do meet the requirements and are ready to apply to the program. The Exercise Science program offers an undergraduate degree in Exercise Science. Exercise Science is a 127 minimum semester hour science-based program with emphasis on the study of exercise and human movement. Students can benefit from a well-rounded exercise science curriculum which is designed to prepare students for a variety of career options. Our graduates are also well-prepared to continue with graduate study in exercise physiology, biomechanics, or other exercise science specialties.
Some students plan to pursue careers in the related fields of physical therapy or athletic training.
Although many of the courses which are required for admission into physical therapy programs are also required in the Exercise Science program, it should be noted however that this is not an official pre-physical therapy program and that there is no affiliation between the Exercise Science program and any physical therapy school or program. Students interested in athletic training should contact the heads of the men's and women's athletic training in the athletic departments.
