This degree combines advanced exercise science coursework with clinical placement in the area of exercise physiology. As a graduate, you will be prepared for work in a range of clinical settings. You will learn how to apply and integrate physiology knowledge, and you will gain the skills needed for assessing and treating chronic disease. You will also develop an understanding of professional communication and team relationships in the clinical environment.

As an accredited exercise physiologist, you will have the opportunity to work in a variety of roles in the public health sector or private practice including return-to-work assessment, functional work testing and job capacity assessment, chronic disease management, group training services, exercise prescription for special populations, weight loss management, and musculoskeletal rehabilitation.
