Exercise Physiology

The Exercise Physiology Major is designed to prepare students for employment in the following areas:
- Cardiac and/or pulmonary rehabilitation specialist
- Personal trainer
- Corporate fitness personnel
- Strength and conditioning coach
- Sport research scientist
- Graduate study in exercise physiology, physical therapy, physician assistant school, or related areas
Professional opportunities for exercise physiologists and fitness specialists have continued to increase during the past several years. The medical community has recently accepted the vital role that exercise plays in prevention and treatment of disease. In addition, the challenges of obesity that face our nation suggest that those involved in exercise and health related undergraduate programs will likely be viewed as high priority employees.
Our graduates go on to work in a variety of settings including hospitals, clinics, YMCAs, health spas, athletic clubs, industry, elite sport organizations, and professional teams. Salary and level of responsibility are usually commensurate with years of experience and level of education.
