3.00 Credits
Examines the use of exercise as a diagnostic, evaluative and rehabilitative tool for individuals with chronic diseases and disabilities. In addition, the underlying physiologic causes of various diseases and the identification of clinical symptoms will be examined, as well as the utility of exercise training to monitor and evaluate clinical progress.
Prerequisite:
EXER378 OR EXS378 OR HES353 OR HPE3370
-
3.00 Credits
Emphasizes the fundamental principles of exercise testing and prescription with a focus on the health-related components of fitness. Students use these principles to develop appropriate exercise prescriptions for healthy and selected clinical populations. Laboratory experiences are built into the lecture component and provide students with the opportunity to engage in lab-based exercise testing. This course will include development of technical and personal skills related to functional fitness assessments, exercise prescription, exercise leadership, and program management.
Prerequisite:
EXER378 OR EXS378 OR HES353 OR HPE3370
-
3.00 Credits
Provides an in-depth exploration of advanced content and laboratory skills pertaining to the function of the human body under the stress of acute and chronic physical activity. Students will be exposed to traditional instrumentation along with new technological advancements within the exercise science field. This course builds directly on the concepts and laboratory skills covered in EXER378 Exercise Physiology.
Prerequisite:
EXER378 OR EXS378 OR HES353 OR HPE3370
-
3.00 Credits
Provides the opportunity for students to apply scientific methods and learn the techniques of scientific research, data collection, and analysis by engaging in an individualized program of research under the supervision of a faculty member. The research will culminate in a scholarly report written by the student, and the results will be presented at a scientific meeting, University research day event, or other appropriate venue.
Prerequisite:
EXER378
-
6.00 - 15.00 Credits
Provides the student with a practical on-site work experience in which technical skills and abilities are applied. Site is selected by the student with the approval of the faculty advisor. This requirement is designed to be the culminating experience of undergraduate course work and facilitates the transition from the role of student to employee.
Prerequisite:
EXER477 OR EXS477
-
3.00 Credits
Provides an overview of relevant research methodologies and designs. Prepares graduate students to read, comprehend, and critique research; retrieve scholarly articles; and develop research-related skills for further graduate education and professional work. Students will learn how to design, conduct, and report research, and will present a proposal for a research project.?Development of research skills will be the primary focus, with emphasis placed upon planning research, utilizing research methods, and interpreting results.
-
3.00 Credits
Provides experiences in the use of technology and procedures in the measurement and assessment of physiological functioning (acute and chronic adaptations), and the maintenance and calibration of such equipment. A major goal of this course is to complement the theoretical preparation of the student by demonstrating conventional technology and instrumentation employed in the study of physiological phenomena.
-
3.00 Credits
Examines basic electrocardiogram theory, interpretation, and the incorporation of exercise testing. This course analyzes the general principles and procedures of cardiac rehabilitation and primary prevention programs. The organization and administration of specific program design, along with counseling and behavioral strategies will also be discussed.
-
3.00 Credits
Sharpens students' critical thinking and writing skills by analyzing current issues in all areas related to exercise science, sport, health, and wellness. Students will acquire and decipher relevant information from both the scientific and non-scientific literature, analyze opposing views to better understand the opinions of varying sides, form opinions, and present a well-informed argument. Deepens students' understanding of the development of a line of inquiry and integrates and extends the information covered in previous courses.
-
3.00 Credits
Examines the application of human movement with application of mechanical laws and principles as it relates to kinematics, kinetics, motion analysis, structural biomechanics, and properties of human tissues, with examples drawn from sport, exercise, and rehabilitation. This class is designed to provide students with a mix of theoretical concepts and applied problem-solving in various biomechanical applications in human movement with emphasis on practical applications (e.g., human performance, causes / prevention of injury etc.).
