What will I learn?

Our master's program in sport and exercise psychology is designed to offer students a well-rounded educational experience in the field of Sport and Exercise Psychology. We focus on preparing students to be competitive applicants for doctoral programs by offering them research and applied opportunities of interest, using a scientist-practitioner approach. Besides pursuing doctoral studies, students from our sport and exercise psychology program have also created their own private practice, worked with the military, got jobs in athletic academic advising, or worked as therapists. We also have partnerships with the Counseling Psychology and Psychological Sciences departments, which allow students to apply for a dual degree in clinical mental health counseling, rehabilitation counseling, or social or clinical psychology, or to minor in one of these areas. Students can also add courses/minors related to coaching, strength and conditioning, biomechanics, nutrition, or neuroscience. Our master's in sport and exercise psychology program offers the opportunity for students to work towards certification as a mental performance consultant through the Association for Applied Sport Psychology.
