Anatomy. Physiology. Exercise assessment and prescription. Biomechanics. Nutrition. These are just a few of the topics you can explore as you study how the human body moves and responds to exercise. Through classes and labs, you’ll learn how to assess a person’s health and fitness, help people manage chronic conditions, and prescribe exercises to help athletes and others achieve their goals for health, wellness, fitness and performance. You’ll typically take foundational courses in exercise science the first two years, and then choose a concentration to specialize in based on your career interests.

Enjoy a successful career in a variety of areas, including sports and athletic performance, health care, and community health and fitness. In fact, UB's exercise science grads have worked in hospitals, outpatient care facilities, schools, corporations, fitness facilities, community centers, performance centers and more. Some examples of job titles include:

While some of these career paths are entry level (and ideal for students who want to get a job right after graduation), other paths require additional education beyond a bachelor’s degree. That’s why many students choose to earn a graduate or professional degree in a related area, including exercise physiology, clinical exercise physiology, physical therapy, athletic training, medicine or public health. Many exercise science students get accepted to graduate programs because our program prepares students well for advanced study in a variety of areas.
