Graduates of the ESS program have proven remarkably
successful in acquiring intercollegiate coaching jobs. The 2007-08 cohort provides
an excellent example. Of the seventeen M.S. candidates at the time, fourteen landed
intercollegiate jobs after graduation, and two candidates acquired coaching jobs prior
to their degree completion. One graduate pursued her degree while coaching intercollegiately,
another opted to work within the fitness field more broadly in a university setting,
and yet another candidate chose to volunteer her skills while maintaining her family
from her hometown.
In short, this cohort reflects the choices and success of the job placement rate for the program overall,
where 92–95 percent of the candidates acquire jobs in their desired field upon degree completion.
Also, as demonstrated by the 2007–08 cohort, these jobs, though primarily geared toward Div.
III athletics, also include graduates who opted for Div. I and Div. II settings. Check out our list
of institutions that reflect a running record of job placements.
