• Students who wish to pursue the Master of Science degree in Exercise Physiology must have graduated from an accredited four-year institution with a major in Exercise Science, Kinesiology, Exercise Physiology, or related fields. Students who do not have the appropriate academic background are required to have both Human Anatomy & Physiology and Chemistry as prerequisites. Additionally, it is recommended that students have taken exercise science related courses, such as exercise physiology and/or biomechanics.

The cost of studying at Baylor University varies largely depending on the type of university and the degree chosen. More often than not, humanities, arts, and education courses are less expensive than degrees in medical, engineering, or management. Furthermore, students who choose to study at the postgraduate level typically pay higher tuition fees, which again vary depending on the programme chosen. 

Most universities provide scholarships or financial aid to students in order to help them offset their tuition costs. Students should be aware that additional course fees and incidental expenses may not be included in tuition. On average, international students can expect to pay $70,424 annually, to study in Baylor University.

Baylor University’s MS in Exercise Physiology program prepares students for academic careers with an intense research focus, such as pursuing a PhD or Clinical Research Assistant or for non-academic careers such as Clinical Exercise Physiologists, Strength and Conditioning Specialists, Wellness Coaches, Fitness Consultants, and Gym Managers.
