Program Overview
Exercise science is an excellent choice for your program of study if you're passionate about exercise and its short- and long-term effects. You will study human movement from multiple perspectives as you prepare for a career in fields, including strength and conditioning, fitness, recreation, rehabilitation, or corporate wellness.
Our Exercise Science major is a versatile program that equips you with the knowledge and practical experience to pursue a variety of disciplines, allowing for latitude in your program of study. If you're interested in applied fitness settings, you'll find internship opportunities at local, national, and international fitness facilities. If clinical applications of sport science are more appealing (e.g., cardiac or pulmonary rehabilitation, physical therapy), you may wish to complete both prerequisite coursework and experiential observations while at Endicott. Students interested in pursuing careers in physical therapy, occupational therapy, or as a physician assistant can now add our new allied health concentration. This concentration provides academic rigor and elective flexibility, allowing students to follow their professional goals.
Upon completion, you will have the opportunity to sit for national credential examinations offered by the American College of Sports Medicine and the National Strength and Conditioning Association.
Endicott's exercise science program also offers the following concentration:
