The Exercise Science Club is for undergraduate students looking to grow and develop in their studies and to better know their peers.
The athletic training education program is a part of the department of exercise and sport sciences which shares the Ganus Activities Complex with the department of kinesiology and Harding's athletic programs. This facility includes modern classrooms, a computer lab, the Human Performance Lab, a work-out center with weight rooms, a swimming pool, racquet ball courts, free play gym, golf center, aerobics room and sports locker rooms/meeting rooms.
Each class, laboratory and clinical experience is founded on the fact that we are fearfully and wonderfully made, and it is an honor to study God’s creation. With this foundation and our highly trained and motivated faculty living Christ-centered lives, our department is a great place for students to discover their inspired purpose.
