Exercise Science is an interdisciplinary program that prepares you for allied health, human movement, and physical education careers.
Since many exercise science careers require education beyond an undergraduate degree, you will be ready to enter these programs after graduation.
A strong research focus right from the start
Hands-on research is a core part of the Exercise Science program. Through your courses, you will:
Many research and internship opportunities
The program also provides research opportunities through the Swenson Summer Research Fellowship program, Directed Research with a faculty member, or Independent Study Research in an area of interest to you.
We encourage and support internship opportunities at sites that include Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy clinics, University Village, Miller Family YMCA, and SportsWestKids training center.
State of the art equipment supports your research
The Human Performance Lab gives you access to the tools and equipment you'll need to conduct meaningful research, including:
Develop professionally as you learn
There is a strong focus on professional development and professional engagement. In the past eight years, over 200 Exercise Science majors have attended the regional meeting of the American College of Sports Medicine. In 2007, Cal Lutheran students hosted the meeting. In 2008, the Southern California Conference on Biomechanics was held on the Cal Lutheran campus with seven of our students presenting to over 150 attendees.
Be active in the community
Exercise Science faculty and students are active in the community. Faculty frequently give lectures on topics related to exercise science, particularly exercise and aging. Many research projects conducted in the department also serve the community, with research project participants ranging from toddlers to the elderly.
