“As a Ranger I have learned so much through the Health and Sports Science Department at NWOSU. The facility members are enthusiastic, approachable, and caring. The willingness of the professors to do anything to watch you succeed, helped me choose my desired degree path of Health and Sports Science Option 1. The small class sizes make a great atmosphere for hands-on learning and getting to know your professors on a personal level. This helped me tremendously throughout my academic career. The Health and Sports Science Department at NWOSU has helped me prepare for my future of becoming a Physical Therapist.”
