Exercise Science Majors are required to complete a 3-credit, (120 hr) internship in the field. As all of the future professions in our field are hands-on, our internships are focused on getting our students the most practical experience possible. Internships can be conducted at any appropriate location, no matter where it is in the country, and during any semester including Summer and Winter sessions.
Additionally, students of any class standing (freshmen, sophomores, juniors, seniors) can complete any number of internships of 1, 2, or 3-credits as long as there is space available.
