The Master of Science in Exercise Physiology program is practitioner-focused, highlighting core skills that allow you to harness the growing body of knowledge in exercise science to improve people’s lives or help athletes compete at a higher level. This intensive, two-year degree program prepares students to obtain certification from either the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) or the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA).  As a graduate student, you will have opportunities for hands-on experience in and outside the classroom focusing on one of two concentrations in Clinical Exercise Physiology (CEP) or Strength and Conditioning & Sport Science (SC/SS).

During the summer semester, Dr. Jackie Zera, Graduate Program Director, requests that prospective students reach out to her directly to set up a time to meet. To find a time that fits your schedule, please contact Dr. Zera at jzera@jcu.edu. Meetings typically last 30 minutes.
