Is Kinesiology a good option for pre-professional students (i.e. medical, physical therapy, dental, law, MBA)?
Yes. Many Kinesiology students continue on in school to attend a graduate program of some type, whether it’s a physical therapy, physician assistant, medical school or law school, just to name a few. The majors in Kinesiology provide a solid foundation for those students who want to continue on to a professional graduate program. The opportunities for Kinesiology graduates are endless. The course content and the critical thinking skills acquired, opportunities for self-directed learning, working in the research labs, field experiences and internships give Kinesiology graduates an edge when applying to these programs.
