About Exercise Science at UB

Exercise science is the study of human movement and the responses to movement in healthy populations and those with disease and disability. The Exercise Science program provides students with a strong knowledge base in physiological, biomechanical, and nutritional aspects of human physical activity. Students can opt for specialized concentrations in exercise nutrition, pre-physical therapy, or exercise science.

Important Phase-out Notice

Recent changes in the goals and strategic planning at the Institutional, School and Department levels have resulted in the decision to discontinue the Athletic Training Program in May 2010. The last opportunity to enter the professional sequence (i.e. the traditional “junior” year) of the Program will occur in the summer of 2007, when the Class of 2010 begins the third year of study at UB. The Athletic Training Program is known to be of high academic quality. Throughout the phase-out period, we pledge to deliver the same high quality academic experiences that gained the Program full accreditation status. For individual advisement, contact the Program Director. Please see Athletic Training for more information on the program.
