Exercise Science is the study of movement and the associated functional responses and adaptations the body makes as a result of movement/exercise. The Allied Health Professions (AHP) sequence gives you a well-rounded foundation in areas of Exercise Science, including physiology, biomechanics, sports and exercise psychology, and motor learning.

Why Study Allied Health Professions?

Exercise Science covers a diverse range of topics related to human movement, such as:

  • The way different movements and fitness programs affect the body and its ability to exercise
  • How different forces can apply to sports performance, injury prevention, and rehabilitation
  • Improving and maintaining people’s motivation for exercise
  • The various impacts of psychological factors on youth sports, elite performance, burnout, team cohesion, and coaching and leadership behaviors
  • Understanding how and why people move the way they do, and how they improve movement skill.
