Kinesiology - Exercise Science Focus A.S. (Plan 11AB)

Kinesiology is the study of the art and science of human movement!

It involves designing and implementing exercise programs, studying about the prevention and treatment of athletic injuries, instructing physical education classes, teaching group exercise classes, creating health behavior change strategies, exploring health promotion and disease prevention, and more! Taking Kinesiology classes at CLC can help students to improve their own level of physical fitness, prepare for a career in the health fitness industry, and provide engaging transfer credit moving on to a four-year program.

Successful completion of the certificate and/or degree programs in Kinesiology will prepare students for highly regarded credentials through the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), National Strength & Conditioning Association (NSCA) and other accredited fitness organizations.

This program is recommended for students pursuing a B.S. in Kinesiology with an Exercise Science Focus. Students are strongly encouraged to meet with the department chair, Joana Pabedinskas, early in their program to discuss the different options available within the field of Kinesiology.
