Augusta University encourages students to experience research and scholarly activity, with faculty oversight, in many different ways. The Center for Undergraduate Research and Scholarship (CURS) supports faculty-led research and scholarly activity with undergraduates. The Honors Program guides students to complete a thesis that is a project of research, scholarship, or creative activity completed by an honors student under the mentorship of a faculty advisor.
Kinesiology is the scientific study of the anatomy, physiology, and mechanics of body movement, especially in humans. A bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology leads to careers in exercise; fitness, wellness, and health promotion; sport; and rehabilitation. For more information, visit www.augusta.edu/education/kns.
