Technical Studies
The Sports & Exercise Studies program prepares graduates for various opportunities within the health and fitness industry. The sciences of biology, chemistry, anatomy and physiology provide the foundation for the further specialized study of how the human body responds and adapts to the physical stress of exercise. Laboratory activities provide students with the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in selecting, administering, and scoring tests for all components of physical fitness. Graduates of the Sports & Exercise Studies Program are skilled in developing and implementing safe and effective exercise programs for multiple populations to achieve wellness, health and/or performance goals.

Mission Statement
The primary mission of the technical studies degrees is to provide a quality education through an individuallyplanned technical program designed to respond to specialized needs of an individual or the community.
Degrees Offered
♦ Associate of Technical Studies ♦ Bachelor of Technical Studies
As the primary objective of the Associate of Technical Studies (ATS) degree is to broaden the educational program alternatives in a community that has very limited industrial base, the proposed educational objectives may be very unique and nontraditional.
TheAssociate of Technical Studies (ATS) degree is open to any student admitted to the University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College if the Chair of the School of Engineering Technologies determines that an existing technologydegree program will not meet the student’s educational goals and that those goals are based on a feasible occupational objective.
The proposed program of study must meet the requirements of the Ohio Department of Higher Education for content and must be approved by a committee of School of Engineering Technologies faculty members, who advise the student as needed throughout the implementationof the program.
Application for anATS degree program must be made before 33 semester credit hours of combined transfer and University of Rio Grande/Rio Grande Community College academic coursework have been completed. The remaining courses must include at least half of the specialized/technical courses of the program.
The Bachelor of Technical Studies (BTS) degree program in URG/RGCC’s School of EngineeringTechnologiesoffers a unique opportunity for students who would like to continue their formal education beyond an associate degree in a technical field that does not have a bachelor degree option available.The program builds on the student’s technical concentration from the associate degree by transferring those hours into a bachelor’s program.
The BTS degree program allows any student with an associate degree from an accredited institution to enter the BTS program and graduate by completing 46 credit hours of specified core courses and 24 student selected credit hours (with an advisor’s assistance) of technical electives. The BTS degree is a 2 + 2 degree program. Courses used for securing an associate degree cannot be used again for the BTS degree. All courses, regardless of their course level, are charged at the current private university credit hour rate for the third and fourth years.
The BTS degree program provides the student with knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary for advancementin his/her chosen careers and integrates the technical skills developed within applied associate degree programs with the professional skills inculcated in a bachelor’s degree program. Acompletion degree, the BTS degree is offered through the School of EngineeringTechnologiesand consists of: • a minimum of forty-six (46) credit hours in core courses. • a minimum of twenty-four (24) hours of studentselected hours (with assistance from an advisor) that builds upon the technical courses or technical area of the two-year degree. • a minimum of thirty-three (33) credit hours at the 300/400 level. • a minimum of 120 total credit hours necessary to graduate with a BTS degree.
