BS in Exercise and Sport Science: Pre-Athletic Training Concentration

The Pre-Athletic Training concentration of the BS in Exercise and Sport Science (ESS) degree is the best pathway to prepare yourself for a professional-level, athletic training program. The core exercise and sport science courses build a foundation for acute injury care, understanding the impact of injury on function (pathophysiology), the evaluation process and appropriate interventions. In short, it builds a foundation, provides you with needed pre-requisites and connects you to program faculty.

EKU goes above and beyond when it comes to our pre-professional, healthcare programs. The focus is on preparing students to be successful in their next step and not merely a place where you can get your required pre-requisite courses. Here at EKU you will connect to professionals in the field, have opportunities to get hands-on experiences in foundational courses, develop essential skills that will bolster professional practice, and live inspired as you interact with faculty and peers inside and outside the classroom.

Students interested in the program should contact their current ESS: Pre-AT advisor or Dr. Matthew Sabin to discuss the best path towards professional practice.
