Exercise Science is the scientific study of human movement and the changes caused by physical activity in the body with the goal of understanding how to maintain or improve health and fitness. A Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science with an Allied Health Pre-Professional Concentration prepares students for further study in an allied health field (such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, athletic training, chiropractic medicine, nursing, and more) by integrating applied, hands-on learning experiences with a firm understanding of basic facts, theory, and research about health and physical activity.

- Completion of at least 15 credits with a GPA of 2.50 or above

Note: It is strongly recommended that transfer students complete (or are scheduled to complete) BIO 237: Anatomy & Physiology I and BIO 238: Anatomy & Physiology II (or their equivalents) with a grade of C or better prior to transferring to Exercise Science. Both courses are necessary to progress through the major and not having them may delay your progress and/or graduation semester if you are transferring as a sophomore or higher.
