This is a senior capstone course that integrates the knowledge, concepts, as well as professional
skills gained from prior coursework in the exercise sports science undergraduate program. Students will be able to
choose from two different options in this capstone course: an applied project in which the student will develop a
hypothetical applied case and intervention program for a client/team in order to synthesize and demonstrate their
ability to understand, develop, and advance the principles of applied physiology; or b) a research project in
which the student will apply research techniques, including the ability to define a research problem, write
hypotheses, review the literature, apply a research design, collect and analyze data, and interpret the results.
