Professor Barry Braun, Department Head

The Department of Health and Exercise Science provides undergraduate and graduate education as well as serving as the home for the Human Performance Clinical Research Laboratory, Heart Disease Prevention Program (HDPP),  Adult Fitness Program, Noon Hour program, and Fit Cancer program.

The HES mission is to create an environment of exceptional teaching and learning, outstanding research and scholarship, and engagement that provides high value to the community. We are committed to our goal of producing nationally and internationally recognized research programs and graduates that focus on helping people protect, maintain, and improve their health and quality of life throughout the lifespan.

The Department of Health and Exercise Science provides the following academic program specializations:

  • Health and Exercise Science Major (B.S.) with tracks in Health Promotion and in Sports Medicine
  • Master’s degree in Health and Exercise Science (M.S.)
  • Doctorate in Human Bioenergetics (Ph.D.)

Graduate Programs in Health and Exercise Science

The department offers two graduate degrees: the Master of Science in Health and Exercise Science, and the Doctor of Philosophy in Human Bioenergetics. Students interested in a Master’s degree in Public Health with a focus in Health and Exercise Science can refer to the School of Public Health. Students interested in graduate work should refer to the Graduate and Professional Bulletin  and the Department of Health and Exercise Science.
