Direct Master's Accelerator - Master of Science - Exercise Science At University of South Carolina: Tuition Fee: $32,196.00 USD / Year (Scholarship Available)

If you have the academic ability to apply directly to your degree program and you do not need additional English support, the Direct Master’s Accelerator Program (Direct MAP) is the ideal route of entry into University of South Carolina. It is designed to meet the needs of the highest-achieving, bilingual students.
 Through Direct MAP, you will be fully enrolled in your degree-course schedule alongside your fellow domestic students. Students continue into their second semester with 9 degree credits.

As a Direct Master's Accelerator student at the University of the South Carolina, you will:

  • Gain direct access to the degree program of your choice, and a selection of rigorous courses hand-picked by your academic advisor to match your interests and career goals at no additional cost.
  • Receive a well-rounded educational experience with the help of coaches and mentors who help you get the most out of your time in the United States.
  • Expand your professional network through career preparation and programming that deepens your connection to the university, your fellow classmates and potential employers.


The Master of Science (MS) degree in Exercise Science prepares students for careers in academia and multiple health-related specialties and professions within the broad scope of Exercise Physiology, such as exercise physiologist, fitness coordinator, rehabilitation coordinator, and many more.  Additionally, the curriculum and related research opportunities prepare students for pursuing additional graduate work (e.g., PhD, MD, DPT).  The curriculum includes coursework in exercise physiology, clinical exercise testing, epidemiology, research methods and statistics, physical activity and health, and motor control and development. Elective coursework is also embedded within this framework to allow for individual interests, examples include skeletal muscle physiology, endocrinology in exercise and health, neural repair and rehabilitation, and community-based interventions for physical activity. There are countless opportunities to participate in ongoing research through assistantships and independent study courses. Students have the option of completing a thesis (focus on research training) or a project (focus on clinical or applied skills training).

 

Upon the graduation, students will be able to:

  • Evaluate scientific literature, create a research plan and analyze and interpret research results.
  • Demonstrate proficiency in laboratory-based assessments through written and practical evaluations.
  • Explain, analyze and evaluate physiological changes that occur during exercise and how environmental conditions influence these responses.
  • Explain, analyze, and evaluate the relationships between physical activity, behavior, and health.
  • Explain, analyze, and evaluate the relationships between biomechanical and neural factors that influence learning and performance of motor skills in healthy and disabled populations.
