• XSCI 4910R: Study Abroad in Exercise Science

  3.00 Credits

  Utah Tech University (formerly Dixie State University)

  
  This three-credit undergraduate-level course provides students a once in a lifetime opportunity to participate in a multi-week study abroad program led by the Exercise Science program at Utah Tech University. Designed for students who want more hands-on emphasis and experiences regarding human physiological adaptations at differing environments while incorporating elements of independent research, data collection, data testing, data assessment, and international travel. For international travel, see studyabroad.utahtech.edu for additional travel costs that may apply. **COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLOs) At the successful conclusion of this course, students will be able to: 1. Explain the major changes that occur to human physiology during rest and exercise at varying locations and environments. 2. Collect sample data regarding physiological adaptations at varying locations and environments. 3. Analyze collected data regarding physiological adaptations at varying locations and environments. 4. Interpret collected data and explain the relevance of findings in relationship to the field of exercise science. SU
