Overview

Current faculty provides expertise in physiology, nutrition, metabolism, psychophysiology, and endocrinology. Existing ties to outstanding programmes at Rutgers (i.e., Nutritional Sciences, Endocrinology and Animal Biosciences, Psychology, and Physiology and Integrative Biology, the Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, and the Medical School) provide a unique foundation for the education and training of the next generation of scientists in the area of Kinesiology.

Key facts

The programmes emphasize training in both basic and applied science. Students will be taught about hormonal, biochemical, metabolic, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, and psychological responses to exercise, exercise testing and prescription principles, and application of physical activity to an overall beneficial wellness profile. The strengths of the affiliated faculty are conducive to implementing this model. Furthermore, due to supportive ties to the Institute for Food, Nutrition, and Health (IFNH) at Rutgers, translational research at both a human health, metabolism and clinical application will be priorities of this Kinesiology and Applied Physiology programme of Rutgers University.
