Welcome to the SDSU Exercise Science page! We use this page to communicate with prospective, current, and past students.

The Exercise Science graduate will possess the knowledge, skills and abilities to enhance awareness, change behavior, and create environments that support good health practices, including, but not limited to exercise and physical activity. The HP professional assists people to develop self-responsibility for their own health and wellness, and implement health assessments and wellness programs that promote a healthy lifestyle. Health Promotion professionals work and study in commercial, clinical, and workplace settings to increase health, fitness, and quality of life for the general population. In the area of exercise, the HP professional is able to apply the knowledge of acute and chronic physiological responses and adaptations to exercise to promote better health or to enhance the performance of athletes, apparently healthy individuals across the life-span, and special populations (i.e., diabetes, cardiopulmonary, osteoarthritis, etc.).

We're thrilled when our alumni return to share their expertise with current students. Christopher Mandl, a graduate of our master's program, is making a difference at Sanford Cardiac Rehab in Sioux Falls. Today, he inspired students with his insights on heart disease and the vital role of cardiac rehab in enhancing patient outcomes. Kudos, Christopher!
