  • The Department of Health Sciences currently offers a Master of Science in Exercise Science with a public health emphasis. The concentration on physical activity and public health recognizes that inactivity is a major public health problem and represents a significant risk factor for many chronic diseases including heart disease, stroke, hypertension, metabolic syndrome, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and some types of cancer.
  • This program integrates key competencies for a degree in exercise science recommended by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), including knowledge of exercise physiology and the assessment and development of physical activity and exercise programs for the general and clinical populations.
  • The program offers three pathways of study: research, public health, and practice-based pathways. These pathways train students to pursue a terminal degree in exercise science or to pursue opportunities in research and clinical settings, or within federal, private, and nonprofit institutions.
  • We offer students internship, practicum, and research opportunities at both on- and off-campus sites. The exercise science program provides its students with a dedicated on-site laboratory that is equipped with state-of-the-art technology that is ideal for applying coursework, honing practical skills, and conducting research.
  • Experiential education is a key component of the program because the application of classroom knowledge provides valuable preparation for a career in exercise science. Faculty in the department are exploring a range of research topics, including acute/chronic effects of exercise, community-based exercise and nutrition interventions, nutrition epidemiology, health disparities, urban public health, and the application of technology for measuring and motivating behavior change.
