 EXERCISE AND REHABILITATIVE SCIENCE:  MOVEMENT SCIENCE (ERMS)
This option is designed to meet graduate school entrance requirements in a Movement Science field including biomechanics, exercise physiology, kinesiology, motor learning, physical therapy, occupational therapy, physician's assistant, or chiropractic medicine.  Students should meet early with the advisor to plan their program of courses. The course of study provides students with a thorough understanding of areas related to both natural and movement science.  Each student is required to develop an appropriate research project; perform data collection; and present the results as a poster presentation, journal article, or research paper.

Students enrolled in the Exercise and Rehabilitative Science: Movement Science option must maintain a minimum of 3.0 GPA in the Exercise Science core and the Movement Science option coursework.  If students fail to meet these requirements, they will be put on academic probation and be given one semester to attain the 3.0 GPA.  If, after one semester, the student fails to meet the 3.0 GPA, she/he will be dismissed from Movement Science program of study.
