About the BS in Sport Medicine Degree
Why Study Sport Medicine at Cedarville?
If you're interested in pursuing a career as an athletic trainer, Cedarville University's sport medicine major is the perfect starting point! With the Sport Medicine + MAT option, your senior year is strategically integrated into the first year of our MAT (Master of Athletic Training) program. When admitted into the MAT program, you'll be able to complete a BS in sport medicine, a Bible minor, and an MAT degree in just five years. Cedarville's athletic training program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE), ensuring a high-quality education.
While the sport medicine program prepares you for the MAT program, it also provides a strong foundation for pursuing graduate studies in occupational therapy, physician assistant, physical therapy, and other fields. If you choose not to pursue an MAT, you can complete a fourth year in the sport medicine program and graduate with a bachelor’s degree, equipped for graduate school or entry-level positions in the industry. No matter what pathway you choose, you'll gain a deeper understanding of injury assessment, treatment, and more, while learning to serve your patients with Christlike compassion.
