Overview

Carroll University’s Exercise Science major is truly interdisciplinary and combines science, nutrition and fitness courses to prepare you for any career in exercise science. You’ll take basic science classes such as chemistry and biology to teach you how the body works and then move onto applied science courses like exercise physiology to learn about the body in motion and application courses which will teach you the skills needed to become an exercise scientist.

Key facts

The majority of your classes involve hands-on experiences—for example, you’ll work with your peers to test heart rate, blood pressure and skin fold and also be able to apply these practices to some of our NCAA Division III student athletes.

Under program faculty supervision in our capstone course, our students have opportunities to serve as personal trainers to Carroll faculty and staff, creating individual training programs they administer throughout the semester. The Capstone course will also assist students in developing their resume and interview skills to hit the ground running after graduation.

Programme Structure

Courses include:

You’ll also look at the relationship between chemistry and nutrition, to understand how the foods we eat affect and improve health and performance.

And if you’re most interested in how the body moves, you’ll learn what happens inside each of us when we run, jump or contract a muscle.
