Course Introduction
Exercise Science is an interdisciplinary field that explores the physiological, biomechanical, and psychological aspects of physical activity, exercise, and sport. This course examines how the human body responds and adapts to movement and physical training, with an emphasis on understanding foundational principles of anatomy, physiology, kinesiology, nutrition, and exercise prescription. Students will gain insight into the assessment of physical fitness, the management of injury prevention and rehabilitation, as well as the promotion of health and wellness through scientifically-backed exercise interventions.
