Students often put a lot of time and energy in professional behaviors that are different than what graduate programs and employers are actually seeking. The purpose of this study was to compare the perceived priority of professional behaviors between general Utah Valley University students, Exercise Science students, and employers in the realm of exercise science. A total of 572 students were surveyed to rank a randomized list of professional behaviors that were statistically compared with those of potential employers of this same student population. Analysis reveals that other than the #1 ranking, the classes differed from each other in ranking professional behavior and they differed from employers. Having identified these differences, we might consider designing academic programs to bring the students more in line with employers' priorities and doing it earlier in the students' academic careers.
