If you are seeking athletic training as a major beginning the fall 2017 and wish to earn a Masters in Athletic Training you will be able to complete a bachelor’s degree through the College of Health and Human Services, and if your plans include pursuing advanced degrees, we will continue to work with you to offer personalized advising for graduate programs in athletic training, physical therapy and other postgraduate study in the health professions.

Moving forward, SVSU remains committed to providing our students with the finest possible undergraduate education David Berry, the Great Lakes Athletic Training Association’s 2016 Outstanding Educator award recipient, is remaining as faculty, and he is taking an active role in adapting our curriculum to best prepare our students for careers in health and health care.
