This program is offered by the College of Science and Health/Natural Sciences and Mathematics Department听and is only available at the St. Louis main campus.

Program Description

The bachelor of science (BS) in exercise science provides an excellent academic foundation for students choosing to pursue graduate and professional degrees in a wide array of health careers, such as exercise physiology, occupational therapy, physical therapy, medicine and athletic training. Because these fields require post-baccalaureate degrees, students will need to take additional prerequisites that apply to their field of interest. Students who choose not to pursue a post-baccalaureate degree can pursue a career as a personal trainer, wellness coordinator, strength and conditioning coach or in corporate wellness.

Learning Outcomes

Upon completion of the exercise science program, students will be able to:

• Demonstrate basic knowledge of biology, chemistry and physics.
• Demonstrate basic knowledge of human movement.
• Demonstrate knowledge of effective analysis of kinesiology concepts.
• Demonstrate skill in applied kinesiology, in the effective use of problem-solving techniques and in intelligent decision-making skills in clinical settings.
• Demonstrate tolerance and understanding of diverse populations, responsible citizenship, a professional attitude, and ethical behavior.
