-
3.00 Credits
This course provides the theoretical and practical knowledge necessary to design and instruct safe, effective group exercise classes to participants of varying skill and fitness levels. Student learning will be solidified through application-based experiences.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will cover the theories and constructs that underlie behavior in clinical, general, and performance populations. Students will be introduced to theories and concepts that explain behavior, including personality, motivation, group dynamics, imagery, self-efficacy, and behavior change. Students will achieve a broad understanding of how to apply these theories and constructs to teaching, coaching, exercise, and therapeutic environments.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will focus on the theories and concepts associated with motor skill learning and how they can be applied to rehabilitation sciences such as Physical and Occupational Therapy. Upon completion of the course students will be able to give examples of how motor skill learning theories and concepts can be implemented into therapeutic environments. Student learning will be solidified through application-based experiences.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Designed to give the candidate individually structured study and experience in allied areas such as cardiac rehabilitation, athletic training, pre-physical therapy, fitness and recreation, or others approved by the department. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
-
3.00 Credits
Placement in cooperating local businesses, agencies, and organizations in areas related to exercise science. The field experience is a laboratory class that requires participation in the on-going activities of the assigned internship in addition to online seminars and activities. Students are responsible for transportation to off campus internship sites.
-
3.00 Credits
This class will provide students with an understanding of exercise physiology for clinical populations. Emphasis is placed on the acute responses and chronic adaptations to exercise in patients at risk for or diagnosed with cardiac, pulmonary, and metabolic diseases. Specific topics include: pathophysiology of the disease process, clinical assessment of disease severity, diagnostic testing, and exercise programming considerations for clinical populations. Student learning will be solidified through applicationbased experiences.
-
3.00 Credits
The human body undergoes many changes throughout the lifespan, with significant alterations occurring in youth and in seniors that require unique physical activity considerations. Further aberrations to "normal" conditions are experienced in adulthood during various health conditions and disease states. This course will explore the pathophysiology, disease management, medications, exercise testing and prescription, and responses of activity programs for individuals in need of special considerations. Student learning will be solidified through application-based experiences.
-
3.00 Credits
This class will focus on data collection and interpretation in health and exercise science, including common physiological, biomechanical, anatomical, and health-related variables. Emphasis is placed on the development of a clinical research question and the appropriate procedures to further the body of knowledge in the area of health and exercise science. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to apply theoretical knowledge in the areas of exercise science toward the development of an optimal resistance training and conditioning program. Emphasis will be placed on achieving peak athletic performance through a long-term manipulation of the program design. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide students with in-depth application of advanced physiological systems, exercise biochemistry and cardiorespiratory physiology to numerous populations (pediatric, aging, obese, diabetic, expectant, sport specific athletic, etc.). The contents of this course will build on the foundation of material covered in EXSC 340 Exercise Physiology. NOTE: Please refer to the appropriate academic catalog for additional course information concerning prerequisites, co-requisites and course restrictions..
