TRINITY CHRISTIAN COLLEGE



BACHELOR OF ARTS IN EXERCISE SCIENCE
ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

At Trinity, a B.A. in exercise sciences focuses on developing hearts, souls, strength, and minds to serve God. Your studies will equip you to embrace and articulate a Christian perspective of physical activity and stewardship of the body that enable lifelong service to the Lord. Our professors view fitness, sports, and leisure from a biblical perspective.
Our rigorous coursework is augmented by stellar facilities. At Trinity, we have a Human Performance Lab that features cutting-edge technology like a BodPod and VO2max testing. In fact, we have one of only seven BodPods in the entire Chicagoland area. This provides incomparable hands-on experience for our students.
