运动科学
“Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.——约翰·F. 肯尼迪
运动科学 is the study of human movement and the associated functional responses and adaptations. The Bachelor of Science degree in 运动科学 combines coursework with practical experience to provide students with the preparation needed to be successful in a variety of fitness, 健康, and sports performance settings. 另外, our program prepares students for graduate school in exercise physiology, 物理治疗, and occupational therapy.
Quincy University offers two areas of concentration in the 运动科学 Program:
- Human Performance – prepares students for attainment of professional certification in human performance fields (personal training, strength coaching, 等.)
- Pre-Physical Therapy – prepares students for acceptance into health field graduate programs (物理治疗, occupational therapy, 等.)
