sports medicine major?

<p>First off, I know this is probably not the best section.</p>

<p>Anyway, I am pretty confused on what I want to study in college, but I have a decent idea. </p>

<p>I am very interested in supplement science and nutrition AND how the body works...but Im not sure exactly if there is a major for those particular things</p>

<p>also, i was curious if sports management would be another good option because far down the road I would like to open a store that sells supplements or w/e.</p>

<p>Also, Im going into the military after college so it doesnt exactly matter, but I was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction.</p>

<p>any help at all</p>

<p>Nutrition maybe? I know UCB has the nutrition major. I don't know of any other schools. Maybe physiology, physical education, sports science...</p>

<p>Which military are you joining?</p>

<p>I'm taking a sports medicine class right now in high school, and in the text book it says (but it is talking about Certified Athletic Trainers (CAT/ATC)):</p>

<p>Education
Certified athletic trainers have, at a minimum, a bachelor's degree, usually in athletic training, health, physical education, or exercise science. In addition, athletic trainers study human anatomy, human physiology, biomechanics, exercise physiology, athletic training, nutrition, and psychology/counseling. Certified athletic trainers also participate in extensive clinical experiences with athletic teams, under appropriate supervision.</p>

<p>Don't know if that helps any..</p>

<p>There are lots of schools with Nuitrition science majors. Also, you don't need a degree in anything to open a supplements store. So I don't understand if you plan on just selling stuff or do you want to work for a company that developes supplements? If you just want to sell stuff then maybe nutrition science and business double major. If you want to actually develope supplements then there are number of roads that you can go down, probably most will involve studying lots of nutrition science, chem, and bio.</p>
