With Eastern Oregon University's online bachelor's degree in health and human performance, you can prepare for various careers including teaching, graduate study, nursing, dentistry, dietetics, physical or occupational therapy and more. Enjoy opportunities for internships and extensive community involvement.

Muscle and bone. Brains and biochemistry. The fuel we consume and the air we breathe. Develop an expert understanding of the systems and organs that make humans tick. Our MSc Human Physiology course offers a detailed look at physiology, letting you explore the fundamental systems of human life.

This nationally accredited graduate program trains students for clinical and research careers related to exercise and physical activity to prevent and treat chronic health-related conditions.

If you’re ready to meet tomorrow's complex medical challenges and new approaches, then this is the Master’s program for you. It offers you the unique opportunity to combine scientific subjects with practical application and fundamental research in a clinical setting.

Functionally defined discipline that studies regulatory functions of organs in response and adaptation of specific systems of the organism to changes in external and internal environment in normal and pathological states. There is the dominance of transition from studies of indirect manifestations of certain functions to studies of their own functional and regulatory mechanisms at the cellular and molecular level in order to use the acquired knowledge for the prevention, diagnosis, and therapy of human diseases. The study program is carried out in collaboration with the Institute of Physiology of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic.

The program Human Physiology and Pathophysiology is focused on the study of functions of particular systems of the organism (blood, circulatory system, breathing, digestive, urinary, humoral, nervous systems) and their control, from the molecular level up to the study of mutual relations between particular systems under normal conditions and pathologic states. Equally important is the study of factors that can affect the mechanisms of development, plasticity, and adaptation to epigenetic and internal influences. The experimental and analytic approach of learning enables you to use the knowledge gained for the prevention, diagnostics, therapy, and rehabilitation of the human organism. The objective of the studies in the study program Human Physiology and Pathophysiology is training the students in such a way so that they will be capable of independent scientific work as necessary for an understanding of physiologic and pathophysiologic mechanisms that can be the cause of major clinical conditions. The program is carried out without any specialization.

The BSc Hons Physiology comprises 8 modules and a project which prepares the student for further postgraduate study. The department determines the availability of modules.

Postgraduate study in Physiology and Pathophysiology is focused on the investigation of functions of organs and organ systems during responses and adaptations to changes in the external and internal environments in health and disease. The transition from studies of indirect manifestations of certain functions to their own functional and regulatory mechanisms at the cellular and molecular levels predominates. The acquired knowledge is fundamental for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of human diseases. Study program without specialization.

Master’s degree by dissertation is a research master’s degree that requires a high level of theoretical engagement and in some cases, demonstration of the ability to relate knowledge to a range of contexts for professional practice. It must contain a research component at NQF level 9 (to the value of 180 credits), culminating in the acceptance of a dissertation. A research master’s degree is a full research Program designed to develop research skills which amongst others, allows the graduate to progress seamlessly to the research demands of a PhD.

Physiologists study the mechanisms by which the body functions from the molecular and cellular levels through progressive differentiation to tissue, organs and systems, and eventually the integrated interactions and control of body functions. This core knowledge is applied in research undertaken to investigate normal and abnormal life processes.

The Bachelor of Biomedical Sciences (BBiomedSc) degree provides students with a sound foundation in the scientific principles underpinning biomedical research and thus our current understanding of health and disease. A defining feature of this degree is its interdisciplinary nature with students able to select papers from multiple contributing Departments. The BBiomedSc is a springboard for advanced study and a diverse range of careers including research, health services, and professional programs.

As a kinesiology student, you'll develop an in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology, allowing you to help people maintain healthy lifestyles. You'll also learn how exercise impacts the body's structure and function through intensive courses in human sciences and biomechanics.

In the MS in Human Physiology program, you will have the opportunity to select a specialized area for research and study. As part of our broad course requirements, we offer two distinct concentrations so you can choose the track that's right for you: Research or Preclinical Accelerated.
