22S:148 Intermediate Statiscal Methods
171:161 Introduction to Statistics (3 sh)
171:162 Design and Analysis of Experiments in the Biomedical Science (3 sh)

7. Scientific Area Course Requirements: In order to ensure that Exercise Science students obtain a general knowledge of the key scientific areas that constitute the basis of the major, each student will be expected to complete at least one course in each of the four areas of specialization (anatomy, biomechanics, exercise & integrative physiology and motor control). The student and the mentor decide which course(s) is/are appropriate in each area. This requirement may be met by transfer credit, or, from courses taken as a degree candidate at either the undergraduate or graduate level from The University of Iowa or another institution if accepted by the student's mentor.
