Bachelor of Arts in Exercise Science

نظرة عامة

Exercise Science, also known as "Kinesiology," is the scientific study of how the body responds and adapts to physical activity. Through Exercise Science, we learn how to improve athletic performance, maintain health and wellness, and prevent and treat chronic disease. Primary sub-disciplines within this field include: Athletic Training Biomechanics Exercise Physiology Exercise and Sport Nutrition Exercise and Sport Psychology Motor Behavior Physical Education and Sport Pedagogy Why earn your degree at Bellarmine? At Bellarmine, we provide our exercise science students with a comprehensive and interdisciplinary approach to understanding physical activity behaviors, outcomes, and issues from a micro- to macro-level perspective. Additionally, this highly customizable degree allows students to meet their personal interests, needs, and ultimate career goals via the selection of focused program tracks. The Exercise Science curriculum includes two tracks: Health and Wellness and Sport Performance. The Sport Performance track highlights the role of exercise physiology on the training and performance of athletes. Specialized courses include: Motor Learning, Principles of Athletic Conditioning and Metabolism of Exercise. The Health and Wellness track emphasizes the role of physical activity on health promotion. Specialized courses include: Health Behavior Theory, Community Wellness, and Exercise and Chronic Disease. Many of our students are interested in pursuing a graduate degree in physical therapy. Within the two tracks, the Exercise Science department can include all the pre-requisite requirements for the Bellarmine DPT program. Additionally, Exercise Science students may apply for early entry into the Bellarmine DPT program, if they have completed all pre-requisite courses at the end of the junior year. Students may begin on either track for the early-entry program and should work with their advisor to complete all pre-requisite requirements. Additionally, students have the opportunity to complete a dual BA/MHS or BA/MSAT 5-year early-entry program, which awards the student a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science after 4 years, and allows for the completion of either the Master of Health Science or the Master of Science in Athletic Training in one additional year. Students will apply with the office of Graduate Admission for these early-entry programs in the fall of their junior year.
