These pages provide details and study aids for the course that I teach.  Although primarily developed for my students, any individual is welcome to view these pages to learn about how I conduct my classes, and even use my documents to assist their own course preparation, student directed learning, and course materials.

Research Seminar

 Graduate course that provides direction and support for Ph.D. students preparing for their Dissertation Research Proposal.
PEP 627 Seminar in Applied Human Physiology A course for Ph.D. students to finalize their graduate experience with an overview of the discipline and profession of exercise physiology, assess grant opportunities, discuss options for employment and post-doctoral position, and detail the requirements of tenure and promotion in academia.
PEP 428/579 Sports Physiology A course for undergraduates and graduates that applies exercise physiology to the training and testing (laboratory and field) of athletes.  Students are exposed to numerous laboratory sessions and computer software instruction.
