Kinesiology majors travelled to Australia over the summer for KIN 481, the internship credit class that supports hands-on learning experiences in Exercise Science. Students worked with local agencies, including fitness centers and Australian Football clubs, to apply the knowledge they've learned in the classroom at JMU to real-world situations. They also explored Melbourne and Perth to experience the local culture. This year, a group of students even went skydiving!
