The Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science Program will prepare you for success. In the program, you’ll study anatomy and physiology, mechanical kinesiology, nutrition, and first aid. You’ll also gain an understanding of exercise physiology and have the opportunity to work toward different certifications. Depending on your future goals, you’ll choose a specific emphasis track and get hands-on experience in that area. The BS in Exercise Science is an accredited program by the Committee of Accreditation for the Exercise Sciences.<\/p>\n
We have the Jack R. Leighton Human Performance Laboratory<\/a> where qualified students are given the opportunity to interact and counsel clients of varied ages and physical abilities or be involved in research. Laboratory experiences include such things as the administration of exercise tolerance tests, exercise prescription, nutrition information and body composition analysis.<\/p>\n For more information, or to declare your major, contact the Exercise Science Program Director, Katie Taylor, PhD at ktaylor31@ewu.edu<\/a> or 509.359.4539<\/a>.<\/p>\n Curriculum & Requirements<\/a> EXSC 2025-26 Schedule Information<\/a><\/p>\n EXSC 2025-26 Program Map<\/a>\u00a0EXSC Pre-AT 2025-26 Program Map<\/a><\/p>\n EXSC Pre-OT 2025-26 Program Map<\/a>\u00a0EXSC Pre-PT 2025-26 Program Map<\/a><\/p>\n","background":{"ID":77308,"id":77308,"title":"Biking","filename":"Biking-e1560533020841.jpg","filesize":189916,"url":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841.jpg","link":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/?attachment_id=77308","alt":"","author":"411","description":"","caption":"","name":"biking","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":76919,"date":"2019-06-13 15:09:46","modified":"2019-06-13 15:09:46","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1600,"height":800,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841-150x150.jpg","thumbnail-width":150,"thumbnail-height":150,"medium":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841-300x150.jpg","medium-width":300,"medium-height":150,"medium_large":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841-768x384.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":384,"large":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841-1024x512.jpg","large-width":1024,"large-height":512,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841.jpg","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":768,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841.jpg","2048x2048-width":1600,"2048x2048-height":800,"gform-image-choice-sm":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841.jpg","gform-image-choice-sm-width":300,"gform-image-choice-sm-height":150,"gform-image-choice-md":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841.jpg","gform-image-choice-md-width":400,"gform-image-choice-md-height":200,"gform-image-choice-lg":"https:\/\/test-www.ewu.edu\/chsph\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2019\/06\/Biking-e1560533020841.jpg","gform-image-choice-lg-width":600,"gform-image-choice-lg-height":300}},"title":"Bachelor of Science in","bold_title":"Exercise Science","content":"","secondary_nav_menu_type":"parent","blocks":[{"acf_fc_layout":"catalog-degree","module_background_color":"white","degree_url":"https:\/\/catalog.ewu.edu\/hs\/wellness-movement\/exercise-science-bs\/","show_curriculum_and_requirements":true,"replace_curriculum_and_requirements_text":true,"curriculum_and_requirements_replacement_text":" The Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science offers four tracks and prepares students to work in a variety of health, fitness, wellness, and sports performance environments.\u00a0 Our exercise science track prepares students to work with a range of populations including the general population (i.e., apparently healthy) in commercial fitness and corporate wellness centers, populations with chronic diseases in clinical facilities, and athletes in sports performance settings.
