I'm looking into majoring in exercise science and considering online options. Does anyone know which online colleges have strong exercise science programs? Any personal experiences or recommendations would be super helpful!
While I can't share personal experiences, I can provide some information on well-regarded online programs for exercise science. Two universities stand out:
1. University of Florida's College of Health and Human Performance: They offer an online Bachelor's in Health Education & Behavior, which encompasses many of the same areas of study as Exercise Science. They have reputable faculty and robust support for online students.
2. Concordia University - St. Paul: This school offers an online Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. Their curriculum focuses on kinesiology concepts in human movement, exercise, and management.
There's also California University of Pennsylvania, which offers an online Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. Their program emphasizes a strong science foundation and is aligned with the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines.
It is important to remember that choosing the right one would depend on your specific career goals and personal circumstances. Checking the specifics of the curriculum and the qualifications of the faculty at each institution can be a good place to start. Also, make sure to check whether they provide any sort of hands-on or field experience opportunities, which can be beneficial for exercise science students.
