Welcome to the Kinesiology Department! Kinesiology is a diverse field that studies movement of the human body. The fascination that humans universally experience from all types of movement has resulted in the emergence of a number of sub-disciplines. The sub-disciplines include the study of health, exercise, sports, recreation, work, dance, and other forms of creative movement.



A student can earn a Kinesiology degree to be employed as Health and Physical Education Teachers, Athletic Trainers, Exercise and Fitness Directors, Sport Managers and in a wide range of Health Promotion and Allied Health Fields. Allied Health careers include, but are not limited to Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Cardiac Rehabilitation and Respiratory Therapy.



The faculty and staff will help each student seek a career goal and meet the requirements of their degree program.
