The Sport &
Exercise Studies (formally Sports & Fitness Management)
program was developed and initiated in 1992 to meet the
varying needs of the recreational community in central
Ohio. As we near 15 years of service to the
Columbus community, the emphasis in the program is
placed on real work situations, hands-on training, and a
strong theoretical base on which to derive decisions
about career choice and direction. Customer service is
the core of the program. Meeting the needs of a varying
student population diverse in gender, race,
socio-economic status, disability, veteran status,
sexual orientation, religious background, and
educational level is a goal of the faculty in the SES
program. In turn, instructing students to meet those
same needs in the larger society is our challenge to the
Sport & Exercise Studies student population.
