Department Information

Kinesiology is an academic discipline that involves the study of physical activity and its impact on health, society, and quality of life. Undergraduate students in the Department of Kinesiology at 澳门六合彩历史记录 may choose to major in Exercise Science, Nutrition and Dietetics, Nutrition and Foodservice Management, or Physical Education. Common to all majors is a focus on the body from psychological, biological, and physiological perspectives, as well as an appreciation of an active and healthy lifestyle.

Students majoring in Exercise Science are prepared for a wide variety of kinesiologyrelated fields. Graduates of the program work in cardiac rehabilitation, health/fitness facility management, personal training, strength and conditioning, and employee wellness to name a few. In addition, the Exercise Science degree can provide students with the necessary prerequisites and field experience that will make them strong candidates for future study in athletic training, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and physician assistant programs.

The Physical Education degree program leads to Illinois state licensure in grades K鈥�12. The curriculum focuses on the development of the knowledge, skills, and dispositions needed to positively impact K鈥�12 student learning. To achieve this goal, we offer coursework and a variety of field experiences that focus on the use of evidence-based practices, differentiated instruction, technology, and varied assessments to plan and implement instruction in ways that promote student growth and achievement.

The Nutrition and Dietetics degree program鈥檚 mission is to prepare graduates with the knowledge expected of those entering a supervised practice program leading to eligibility for the CDR credentialing exam to become a registered dietitian nutritionist. The curriculum is designed to facilitate the intellectual, personal, and professional growth of students and to encourage them to be lifelong learners. The Nutrition and Dietetics program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Education in Nutrition and Dietetics (ACEND), located at the headquarters of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics at 120 Riverside Plaza, Suite 2000, Chicago, IL 60606; telephone (800) 877-1600. Graduation is based on completion of requirements of the accredited Nutrition and Dietetics major requirements and fulfillment of University requirements.

The Nutrition and Foodservice Management degree program provides students with the competencies, knowledge, and experiences required of nutritional and foodservice professionals working in nutrition services and the foodservice industry. Career opportunities exist in hospitals, long-term care, schools, correctional facilities, senior living facilities, and other commercial and noncommercial foodservice industries. The curriculum covers areas such as the science of food and human nutrition, the principles and practices of food production, foodservice operation systems, and safety and sanitation. Opportunities to participate in professional meetings, advisory council seminars, field trips, travel tours, Study Abroad programs, and to complete an internship program exist for all students.
