The program offers high school students the unique opportunity to take actual undergraduate-level courses for college credit at a university.
The UMass Boston Exercise and Health Science Summer Pre-College Courses offer high school students an immersive introduction to college-level STEM within the field of exercise science. Students engage with undergraduate courses covering topics such as sport injury prevention, applied kinesiology, exercise physiology, and sports nutrition. The program provides a foundational understanding of the principles of exercise science and allows students to explore various career pathways, including pre-health, exercise physiology, physical activity and health promotion, and fitness and strength & conditioning. Through this experience, participants gain valuable insights into the academic rigor of a university setting and develop skills relevant to health and fitness professions.
A typical day involves classroom learning of topics like kinesiology and exercise physiology, followed by hands-on activities such as health assessments or fitness plan development.
