Concentrations

The Physical Education & Sport Performance program is comprised of three concentrations for students to choose from:

Physical Education Teacher Licensure

The teacher certification concentration prepares students for careers as licensed physical education teachers for children and youth (kindergarten through grade 12). This professional program requires a 2.75 cumulative GPA. Teacher candidates learn to teach within a series of in-depth field experiences. The teacher education curriculum is accredited by the (SHAPE America) and the (CAEP).

Health and Physical Education

Students can pursue multi-age licensure to teach both Health and Physical Education (HPE). These students must maintain a major and cumulative GPA of 2.75. This is a five-year undergraduate program requiring completion of 157 credit hours. The HPE program is becoming our most popular curricular option.

Physical Activity and Sport Performance

This concentration affords students the opportunity to individualize an area of study through a liberal approach to education. A minor is required (e.g., athletic coaching, biology, psychology, sports management, sports medicine, or others). Students follow a required program, but then select a minor and elective courses related to physical activity and/or sport performance to support their areas of interest or in preparation for a related profession such as athletic coaching, or leading physical activity in non-school programs. The Physical Activity and Sport Performance (PASP) concentration is anchored by the notion that physical activity is critical for human well-being and that sport performance is multi-faceted encompassing physiological, psychological and sociological dimensions. Students interested in PASP should see an advisor early in their program to determine an individualized program of study to align with their career goals.

Program Description

Full Description

The Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education, Health and Sport Exploration prepares both teachers who exemplify best practices in the PK-12 setting and professionals who promote high quality physical activity opportunities for individuals across the lifespan. The program places a strong emphasis on field experience, internships and professional development experiences.

The Physical Education, Health and Sport Exploration major comprises the following concentrations:

  • The Health and Physical Education concentration is a four-year program that provides the curriculum necessary for students seeking Ohio teacher licensure in both health education and physical education. The program includes multiple field experiences in a variety of school districts, followed by a full semester of student teaching. Students teach in both subjects and are eligible to sit for the multi-age teacher licensing examinations. Students in combined bachelor's/master's degree programs may apply graduate courses toward the B.S.E. degree.
  • The Physical Activity and Sport Exploration concentration is grounded in the understanding that the study of physical activity and sport is important in themselves and as biological and social concepts. The concentration provides students with the opportunity to design their educational experience by developing an individualized program of study. Students in this concentration are required to declare a minor, either in a related field or outside the field.
  • The Physical Education Licensure concentration prepares students to seek Ohio teacher licensure in physical education. The program includes multiple field experiences in a variety of school districts, followed by a full semester of student teaching. Graduates are eligible to sit for the multi-age teacher licensing examinations.
