The exercise science program is appropriate preparation for further study in sport and exercise sciences or in movement-related areas such as physical therapy and sport medicine. Students who plan to major in exercise science must apply for admission to the program. A student’s grade point average and completion of prescribed prerequisite coursework are factors in the admission decision. Information about admission requirements is available from an academic advisor. The Plan of Study is a suggested four-year course sequence to support academic planning and serves as a helpful guide. Currently enrolled students should meet with their academic advisor to tailor their course selections and timelines to their individual goals and circumstances.
