Physical Activity Research in Kinesiology (PARK)

PARK is a research program in the Department of Kinesiology at CSU, Fresno.

PARK provides opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students to engage in meaningful and timely research related to physical activity. We strive to collect valid and reliable data that can be used to inform efforts to increase physical activity among children in the Central Valley region and beyond.
