Careers in Sports at Dean

Are you passionate about the positive impact physical activity and healthy habits contribute to the body’s overall health and wellness? If so, our Exercise Science program will allow you to explore a variety of career possibilities. You’ll study the science of how the body responds to physical movement, incorporating courses in biomechanics, motor development, physiology, and psychology. You’ll also investigate the effects of nutrition, fitness, and exercise while gaining hands-on experience. Your Dean education will emphasize techniques for flexibility, strength, stability, balance, and motivation. And you’ll put theory into practice every step of the way by attending labs, developing your own testing projects and fitness-related programs, and completing an internship to give you the practical experience needed to succeed in the field. You may also choose to specialize in pre-athletic training or pre-physical therapy, so you are well prepared for graduate studies in those programs.

“While at Dean, I interned with coaches, assisting with team lifts, learning how to create workout programs, and assisting with practices. I was also able to a secure a job with the New England Revolution as a game-day operations staff member due to the affiliation Dean has with Kraft Sports + Entertainment. The exercise science program at Dean really ensures you are ready to earn your certifications after college and jump right into the field. ”

The exercise science program will help you train like a pro in no time!
