Kinesiology

The Kinesiology department at SCC offers students’ academic credit in two (2) Associate Degrees: Exercise Science and Recreation/Leisure, and provides transfer credit degree requirements. The transferability of the Kinesiology courses varies among four-year institutions. This department also offers physical activity courses in fitness, dance, mind/body, and self-defense. Students should refer to the college catalog of the institution to which they intend to transfer. Please speak with an academic counselor to verify the transferability of individual courses in the department.

The mission of the Kinesiology department is to provide quality instruction to prepare students for upper division courses within the discipline of Exercise Science and/or Recreation at a 4-year institution. We offer face-to-face, online and activity courses to complete the first 2 years of higher learning here at SCC.
