People who are interested in expanding their sports and exercise knowledge can choose among four separate concentrations: high-performance coaching, strength and conditioning, sports psychology, and generalist, which is a flex option.

Throughout their course of study, students will learn about the factors that affect optimal performance.

The program includes lectures by industry experts, coursework, practical applications, and a capstone experience.
