MS Degree Requirements

All students accepted into the Master of Science in Physiology of Exercise will take a core of 24-semester hours including the Physiology of Exercise core and research courses. In addition, all students are required to complete (six credit hours of thesis work and a four semesters of graduate seminar.) six semester hours of approved electives. The student will complete their MS program with five credit hours of thesis work and a four semesters of graduate seminar.

A graduate advisor within the Department of Kinesiology will review transcripts of prospective students to determine what prerequisites are needed prior to enrollment in courses within the proposed program. If deficiencies are identified, a pre-program of study designed to prepare the student for graduate course prerequisites will be written and signed by the prospective student and the graduate advisor.
