Departmental Mission:
The Exercise Science
Department aims to meet the needs of our graduates to function more
efficiently as professionals in our discipline and to compete more
favorably in today's job market by providing students with a variety
of opportunities to develop a scientific knowledge base, engage
in practical experiences, and learn, develop and master social and
leadership skills. Students acquiring this knowledge will be prepared
to pursue unlimited opportunities through occupations such as teaching,
coaching, administration, athletic training, as well as other recreational,
wellness, and fitness careers. The department also endeavors to
provide the students of Fort Lewis College with opportunities to
learn and experience the components of healthy living, life-long
activities, and sport competition.
Objectives:
1. The professional preparation
of skilled teachers of human movement and exercise forms as well
as qualified persons in the allied areas of administration, coaching,
athletic training, and the field of fitness.
2. A meaningful program
(individual, dual, and team activities) stressing the lifetime value
of activity for all students.
3. Practical extracurricular
experiences in health, fitness, exercise, and athletic training.
4. Professional leadership
for the intramural, recreational, and fitness activities of the
students. Programs of Study: The Exercise Science Department has
developed four options within the Exercise Science major. These
options provide concentrated study in many of the disciplines associated
with the Exercise Science major. The options are:
1) Athletic
Training for those interested in sports injury evaluation and
rehabilitation.
2) Exercise
Specialist, a flexible option for individuals interested in
a variety of opportunities in the field of Exercise Science. This
option can provide the foundation for those interested in personal
training, physical therapy, or graduate study in Exercise Science.
3) K-12
Teaching option for those wanting to become physical educators
in the school system. It is strongly advised that all students interested
in the K-12 option consult with the Teacher Education Department
to ensure that all licensure requirements are met.
4) Sport
Administration option studies the business and administrative
aspects of sport and recreation. The students in this option will
study in both the Exercise Science department and the School of
Business. As with all majors, the Exercise Science faculty encourages
strong contact with Exercise Science advisors to ensure timely completion
of the major.
