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 your starting point. With the Sport Medicine + MAT option, we have strategically designed the Bachelor of Science in sport medicine curriculum so the senior year is taken as part of the first year of our MAT program. When you are admitted into the MAT program, you are able to complete a BS in sport medicine, a Bible minor, and a Master of Athletic Training degree in just five years. Cedarville's athletic training program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education  (CAATE).

If you choose not to pursue an MAT, you may complete a fourth year in the sport medicine program and graduate with a bachelor’s degree.
