Applied Physiology & Sport Management Undergraduate Programs
The Applied Physiology and Sport Management (APSM) program presents three distinct majors leading to a Bachelor of Science degree.
- B.S. in Applied Physiology & Health Management
- B.S. in Sport Management
- B.S. in Sport Performance Leadership
All three majors require coursework in the physiological sciences and business.
The program also offers three minors:
- Applied Physiology & Health Management
- Sport Management
- Sport Performance Leadership (for students pursuing baccalaureate degrees in other departments at èßäÊÓƵapp)
The core curriculum introduces the discipline; establishes the scientific basis of health, fitness and human performance; introduces the business principles and skills necessary to establish and maintain a sports-related or fitness-related business; and familiarizes students with the legal and ethical aspects of the fitness, health and sport industries. The program culminates in a mentored senior project.
The two primary content areas of science and management are integrated by the organizing principle of evidence-based practice, which parallels the mission of the Simmons School of Education and Human Development to integrate theory, research and practice.
