Exercise Science
I’ve enjoyed all the exercise science courses I’ve taken especially because of how hands-on the labs are that you really get to engage in the subject. I am pursuing dentistry as a career and while it’s a unique path to take with this major, I have a wide scope of knowledge in exercise science that sets me apart from other students. I have learned so much about exercise and health and this all very much relates to your oral health!

Students learn how to answer questions in their profession through the research process. Mentoring students through this process provides faculty the opportunity to stay abreast of recent developments in the field.
Steven Hawkins, Professor
Psychology
In order to discover their purpose, students need to be given an opportunity to learn about what their community and their world need, in addition to learning about what their personal strengths and passions are. I try to give them a safe place in my work with them to talk about both.
