Some continue to doctoral or advanced medical programs in exercise science, physical therapy, occupational therapy, chiropractic therapy, public health, and medicine. A masters in Kinesiology is also frequently sought by individuals who want to expand their foundational knowledge within careers such as: personal training, health coaching, and athletic coaching. Students are encouraged to take advantage of the breadth within the graduate program in exercise and sport science to tailor fit their degree to their own needs and interests.
