Exercise Science Concentration Requirements Pre-professional ConcentrationOur pre鈥恜rofessional concentration prepares students to further their studies and training by building a strong science and human physiology foundation. This concentration is geared for students looking to apply to graduate school to become a health science or allied health professional, specifically, athletic training, physical therapy, chiropractic or medicine. Course Requirements include鈥 CHM101L General Chemistry I (with lab)Or鈥 CHM103L Fundamentals of General Chemistry (with lab)鈥 CHM102L General Chemistry II LabOr鈥 CHM104L Fundamentals of Organic Chemistry Lab鈥 MAT110 Pre-calculus Mathematics鈥 PHY101L Physics I (with lab) 鈥 *PHY102L Physics II *This class is not a requirement for the degree or this concentration. However, the course will be required for either graduate or medical school application.Human Performance ConcentrationOur human performance concentration emphasizes learning how to work with people with a variety of health and fitness goals. Students learn foundational knowledge and skills often used in fitness and training professions, focused on assessing human performance. Students also learn to develop strategies for improving physical fitness and improving performance. Elective courses allow students to expand and build upon knowledge acquired in their core courses and gives them the ability to personalize the concentration in a way that is most helpful to meet their health and fitness goals.
