School of Health & Movement Sciences



Mission Statement

The School of Health & Movement Sciences at Missouri Baptist University is committed to promoting intellectual, spiritual, and professional development, striving to enhance a Christ-centered lifestyle through collaborative relationships and the advancement of knowledge. Areas of study include health sciences, exercise science, fitness management, and pre-professional studies. Each program prepares students for a professional vocation by applying a well-rounded, holistic approach to education from an evangelical Christian worldview. 

Graduate Certificates

A graduate certificate may be earned in the field of Exercise Science. This certificate is a stand-alone certificate and may not be earned concurrently with a master’s degree in the same discipline or track. Students who begin a certificate program and wish to switch to a master’s program must make application to the master’s program through the Graduate Admissions Office and submit all documentation for full admission. Classes may not be transferred in for the certificate programs, and students must complete the required twelve (12) hours through Missouri Baptist University. 

Students returning to pursue a master’s degree after earning a certificate may transfer up to six (6) hours from their certificate program into the master’s program. Six (6) alternative hours will replace completed core classes. The student and advisor will decide on appropriate classes with the approval of the Dean of the College of Science and Health.

The graduate certificates require a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale to be granted.
