The Department of Exercise and Sport Science offers the Master of Science in Exercise Science with a thesis/non-thesis option. The MS degree is designed to develop a high level of knowledge and competence in exercise science. The goal of this degree is for students to gain a deeper understanding of the primary areas of exercise science (exercise physiology, biomechanics, and motor control) and the research methods used to obtain this knowledge. This degree, particularly with the thesis option, can also serve as preparation for work at the doctoral level.
