Ringkasan program

This program deals with the study of muscular activity and the associated functional responses and adaptations. In this context an exercise physiologist must understand the scientific basis underlying exercise-induced physiological responses. The BSEP stands alone as entry level credential for working with exercising adults and is an excellent pre-profession degree for MS level allied health professions. This curriculum is endorsed by the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA). The exercise physiologist is one who utilizes the principles of exercise physiology in a variety of clinical and non-clinical settings. One will be able to assess, design, and implement individual and group exercise and fitness programs for healthy individuals and individuals with controlled disease. One can also deliver a variety of exercise assessment, training, rehabilitation, risk factor identification and lifestyle management services to individuals with or at risk for cardiovascular, pulmonary, and metabolic diseases. These services are typically delivered in community, worksite, commercial fitness, cardiovascular/pulmonary rehabilitation programs, physicians’ offices or medical fitness centers. This degree can also provide a foundation for advanced or professional studies in related areas such as physical and occupational therapy, nursing, physician assistant/medical science, chiropractic medicine, medical school, biomechanics, dietitian/sports nutritionist, public health/health promotion, and other allied-health careers. Some graduates have also obtained employment in the pharmaceutical and medical sales industry.
