Welcome to the Department of Kinesiology

On behalf of the faculty, staff and students in the Department of Kinesiology, I would like to welcome you to our department and this web page. Lipscomb is a wonderful place to grow spiritually, academically and socially. Our department houses two majors: Exercise Science and HPE-teaching. Information concerning all of these programs is contained within this web site. Many of our department graduates continue their education in Health Science Programs such as Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Therapeutic Recreation, Chiropractic Medicine, Nursing, Exercise Physiology, Cardiac Rehabilitation or others areas of interest. If you decide to choose Lipscomb and an area of study within the Kinesiology Department, we know you will be well prepared to achieve your professional and spiritual goals.

Beginning in the Fall, 2009, we have a new masters program in Exercise and Nutrition Science (M.S.).  The information for that program is located at exns.lipscomb.edu

Thanks for taking the time to visit our program! If I can answer any questions you might have, please feel free to contact me at your convenience.
