BS in Exercise Science

People who are curious about how physical activity, or lack thereof, affects the body can find answers through the field of exercise science — from helping an athlete achieve peak performance, to helping patients safely participate in physical activity. Exercise scientists conduct research to help prevent and treat disease through exercise and even help maximize the capacity of people who work in extreme heat or cold or at different altitudes.
