Exercise Science Major: Undergraduate Research

Undergraduate students at Truman are heavily involved in research projects. Most of the projects they research involve questions proposed and developed by students. Once students decide to perform research on a particular topic of their choosing, they work with a faculty mentor. The students (with the help of the mentor) refine the question, design the study, collect the data, calculate the variables, analyze the results, and prepare the work for presentation and/or publication.
