MISSION STATEMENT Our mission in the Department of Applied Exercise Science is to instill in our students the knowledge, skills and abilities that make them leaders in the promotion of safe, active and healthy lifestyle behaviors. Through professional preparation of both undergraduate and graduate students in exercise, sport and associated fields, our exceptional faculty strive for distinction in our respective fields at the local, regional, and national level. We pursue this goal through active engagement in novel and applied research activities that involve both undergraduate and graduate students, through assisting students in making connections between theoretical concepts and real-life applications, through fostering a positive, engaging, and interactive learning environment, through the active promotion of advanced-level educational opportunities and through active participation in local and regional community health initiatives. It is with these initiatives in mind that we design our curriculum, advise our student body, and guide our departmental activities.
Master of Science in Sport and Exercise Science Concentration: Human Performance and Clinical Physiology Program Director: J.D. Mosinski, Ph.D.
INTRODUCTION Students in our Master of Science in Sport and Exercise Science program receive advanced training in human performance consisting of knowledge, skills and abilities in biochemistry, nutrition, psychology, physiology, and sport and clinical exercise physiology. Additionally, students have the opportunity to choose either a thesis or a non-thesis option. In the thesis option, students complete 30 credits of coursework as well as 6 credits of research-based scientific study that will prepare them for mid-level employment in the field and/or entrance into doctoral programs should they choose to continue their education beyond the master level. In the non-thesis option, students complete 30 credits of coursework followed by 6 credits of an academic-year-long internship, many with one of the University’s athletic teams or Semi-Professional sports teams in Erie, as well as local hospitals and rehabilitation facilities to provide students with a variety of clinical experiences with a concentration in Human Performance.
