Modules
As a graduate student at CMU, you'll work side by side with professors in state-of-the-art clinics and laboratories.
This flexible master's degree program provides you with the choice of two capstone research experiences, a thesis or directed research. Our supportive faculty have extensive research experience and will serve as mentors as you work alongside them in their labs or conduct your own research.
Graduates from the exercise physiology program have also gone on to pursue terminal doctoral degrees in the exercise sciences. Some have used the master's program as a launching point for admission into post-graduate allied health professions such as physician assistant, physical therapist and medical school.
