Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this project is to determine students’ perception of EXSS undergraduate curriculum in Australia, including comparisons between career intention, year level, and graduation status.
Results: The top five rated units for importance identified (in order) were Exercise Prescription and Delivery; Functional Anatomy; Practicum/placement; Exercise Physiology, and; Advanced Exercise Prescription and Delivery, with the health/clinical-focussed career group rating some units higher than sport-focussed.
Major conclusions: These findings have important implications for leaders of Australian EXSS programs, and programs worldwide, in how they refine course content to engage and retain students.
