Exercise & Sport Science

Overview

The Exercise & Sport Science emphasis prepares students for careers and specializations in sports nutrition, advanced prevention and care of athletic injuries, reconditioning of athletic injuries, primary physical assessment, and similar areas. This program trains a person’s knowledge in activity skills, educational methods, scientific factors in body movement analysis, sports injury care, and allied health careers.

Studying kinesiology and physical education at The Master’s University equips students to work with the human body as members of the body of Christ. At TMU, almost every professor serves not only in the classroom but also on the field as athletic trainers, daily practicing the up-to-date knowledge and technology they teach their students. Students participate in this practical athletic training with TMU athletes, and they also take hands-on courses in functional anatomy, corrective exercise, and assessment techniques. Alongside these courses, each student is required to participate in at least one internship before graduation, many of which have led to careers in allied health, coaching, firefighting, physical training, teaching, and more.
