When considering career options, many individuals ask themselves: How can I turn my love for fitness and wellness into a profession that benefits others?
An exercise science career could provide the solution. The human performance field has expanded significantly in recent years, offering diverse study and application opportunities. For instance, exercise physiologists review patients' medical backgrounds to create optimal fitness plans. These healthcare specialists assist patients in recovering from long-term illnesses while enhancing heart health, physical conditioning, and mobility.
Certain exercise physiologists collaborate with athletes at all levels seeking performance enhancement. Alternative career paths might involve roles like wellness advisor, corporate health manager, sports trainer, or athletic instructor.
AUM's comprehensive Exercise Science bachelor's program establishes a strong base for human performance careers. It also equips students for postgraduate education in medical fields, nutritional sciences, rehabilitation therapies, and related disciplines.
The program features two specialization paths: the Physical Therapy route for aspiring therapy professionals, and the Health Professions pathway. Both tracks mandate completion of an internship.
