Stephanie Domitrovich is an Academic Advisor and Pre-Health Professions Advising Coordinator with the Undergraduate Advising Center at the University of Montana.

She is an Exercise Physiologist with a background in Athletic Training and Clinical Physiology who also took a number of classes in nutrition during her course work. She finished her BSPE in Exercise Science and Athletic Training at the University of Idaho and her MS in Exercise Science at the University of Montana. Upon graduation from the HHP Department (now the School of Integrative Physiology and Athletic Training) she was asked to continue to work as a research assistant and teach within the department. She also used her Athletic Training certification to cover athletic events at local area high schools and worked at a Physical Therapy clinic in that time as well.

Her teaching for the department has included many areas, from basic nutrition and exercise prescription to kinesiology and the impacts exercise can have on chronic diseases. She has been involved in a number of research projects at UM in environmental and work physiology, clinical exercise science, nutrition and diabetes, and health concerns of wood smoke exposure. Her primary interest is in working with individuals with different chronic diseases. She is passionate about improving quality of life in those around her. 

Since 2021, she operated as the Academic Advisor in IPAT and expanded the advising program as the Director of Undergraduate Advising. In 2021 she began her new role in the Undergraduate Advising Center. Her goal with the program is to continue to offer sound advice to undergraduates about course work and career opportunities. She continues to strengthen her knowledge in advising policy and professional school requirements to ensure she is providing the best service possible to our student body.
