Undergraduate Programs in Exercise Science
Discover a program that combines science, health, behavior, research, and exercise.
One of only three schools of public health with a Department of Exercise Science, we offer outstanding educational and professional opportunities to prepare our students to become skilled exercise or nutrition scientists, and public health practitioners.
We offer a BS in Exercise Science with five concentration opportunities.
- Pre-Medical Professional Concentration (physician, nursing, physician's assistant);
- Pre-Physical Therapy Concentration;
- Pre-Dietetics Concentration;
- Pre-Athletic Training/Sports Medicine Concentration;
- BS in Exercise Science with no concentration which allows students to choose secondary fields such as public health, that complement their exercise science core
