The program is 100% online with the option of on-campus lab days.\n\nThis program also offers graduate assistantships for both research and teaching. Research assistants work in the labs listed below. Teaching assistants teach the Exercise Physiology Lab class and/or activity courses. Graduate assistants may also work in the labs and teach the lab class.\n\nThe Department of Kinesiology is now located on the first floor of the Lee Drain Building and has 4 brand new research labs and 1 teaching lab. The research labs include:\n\n    Motor Behavior/Biomechanics Lab,\n    Human Performance Lab,\n    Muscle Physiology/Exercise Biochemistry Lab, and \n    Strength Training Lab.\n    The Exercise Science Teaching Lab is adjacent to a Wellness Center and seats 20 students with access to exercise testing items such as bikes, treadmills, and plyometrics equipment.\n\nThis program is designed to prepare students for success in their chosen professional careers within a variety of sport, exercise, recreation, education, and fitness settings by providing the highest quality educational experiences. This graduate degree is also appropriate for students planning to continue their training in doctoral programs at other institutions, and students are highly encouraged to complete a thesis if on this track.\n\nStudents complete a core block of four courses and have the options of completing:\n\n    a thesis (both on- and off-campus when applicable),\n    a 200-400 hour internship, or\n    taking additional elective hours to complete their 30-36 hour degree.\n\nFor students interested in completing a thesis, they should start discussing their ideas with the Kinesiology Graduate Coordinator and their professors as they complete the first or second semester. Students are able to complete their thesis at SHSU using the labs and equipment, or in some cases, are able to complete the thesis research project from out of town through remote or external supervision. Each student interested in completing a thesis must communicate with a professor and secure a thesis chair to help them through the process. In consultation with the thesis chair, the student will also build a thesis committee with additional SHSU faculty and, if needed, an outside member."},"ceterms:regulatedBy":["https://credentialengineregistry.org/resources/ce-4ea8b911-5659-49e0-b382-8dfed5277bbf"],"ceterms:accreditedBy":["_:2bc6c837-6aa5-cad7-2c36-bac924ab3331"],"ceterms:occupationType":[{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"https://www.onetcenter.org/taxonomy.html","ceterms:targetNode":"https://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/25-1193.00","ceterms:codedNotation":"25-1193.00","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-US":"Standard Occupational Classification"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Recreation and Fitness Studies Teachers, Postsecondary"},"ceterms:targetNodeDescription":{"en-US":"Teach courses pertaining to recreation, leisure, and fitness studies, including exercise physiology and facilities management.
