The Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science at William Jessup University is designed for students passionate about understanding the human body's mechanics and performance, preparing you for a vital role in health and applied sciences. You will explore the core sub-disciplines of kinesiology, including foundational principles of exercise physiology, biomechanics, and nutrition, equipping you with the scientific knowledge to promote well-being and prevent injury. This undergraduate degree is ideal if you are seeking a robust academic pathway into healthcare professions or the applied fitness industry.
This full-time, on-campus program is structured over four years, integrating foundational chemistry and biology with specialized exercise science courses. You will gain hands-on experience through laboratory work in human physiology and biomechanics, and apply your learning in practical settings through the Exercise Science Clinical Practicum. By completing your degree, you will graduate with a strong foundation in exercise science, ready to pursue further studies in physical therapy, occupational therapy, or enter roles in strength and conditioning and personal training.
