Mission Statement

The Sports & Exercise Studies program prepares graduates for various opportunities within the health and fitness industry. The sciences of biology, chemistry, anatomy and physiology provide the foundation for the further specialized study of how the human body responds and adapts to the physical stress of exercise. Laboratory activities provide students with the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in selecting, administering, and scoring tests for all components of physical fitness. Graduates of the Sports & Exercise Studies Program are skilled in developing and implementing safe and effective exercise programs for multiple populations to achieve wellness, health and/or performance goals.
