Department of Health, Physical Education and Movement Science
B.S. in Health and Physical Education
Gain greater career flexibility while combining your interest in
health and physical education with our double major in Health Education
and Physical Education.
Students in this program learn effective techniques of classroom
management, curriculum design and planning for grades K through
12. Liberal arts courses in biology equip you with knowledge in
human anatomy and physiology.
The Health Education component examines nutrition, health care
services, sexuality and family planning, personal well-being, and
drugs in contemporary society. You will learn how to encourage children
and teenagers, in a non-judgmental approach, to discuss their experiences,
attitudes and values related to health issues.
The Physical Education portion shows you how to create a program
that motivates students to stay fit. Learn how to organize movement
activities, impart rules and regulations, conduct lessons that allow
for maximum practice opportunity, analyze student performance and
identify sports-related injuries.
Gain field-based teaching experience through internships and student
teaching. Because the program offers the versatility to teach two
areas of study, additional coursework is required.
