Exercise Science Minor

This minor explores the interactions of physical activity, exercise training, and nutrition on the human body.

In this track, you will develop a broad knowledge base along with critical thinking and communication skills. Our devoted faculty and small class size provide plenty of opportunities for hands-on experiences in exercise physiology, sport nutrition, motor learning, sport psychology, and biomechanics. The interdisciplinary coursework will prepare you to become effective and socially responsible contributors to the scientific, performance, and athletic communities.

This minor is an excellent addition for someone pursuing a science degree who is also interested in careers in or related to the fields of athletic training, exercise rehabilitation, fitness training, health care, and coaching.
