FACULTY YSU maintains a faculty-student ratio of approximately 1:19, which is among the best of the state-affiliated universities in Ohio.

Full-time faculty in the Department of Human Performance and Exercise Science are teaching professionals, with wide ranges of experience to support a variety of student interests. The faculty members specialize in such diverse areas as exercise physiology, clinical exercise physiology, biomechanics, kinesiology, elementary and secondary teacher preparation, coaching, sport sociology, and program administration.

With ongoing research studies in many of these areas, undergraduate students are encouraged to become part of a research team. All full-time faculty members serve as academic advisors and are involved in every phase of instruction in the undergraduate programs.
