Why
Study Physical Education and Sport?
In your daily life, you regularly utilize human movement. In
fact, if your physical abilities are compromised at all, on
either a temporary or permanent basis, your dependence on
physical movement is readily apparent.
You can study physical education and sport no matter what
your interest level - from thorough study of kinesiology
(the study of physiology and human movement) to
participation in a particular sport for the purpose of
personal enjoyment. If you are interested in developing your
fullest potential through the unique medium of human
movement, you are interested in physical education and
sport.
Physical
Education and Sport at CMU
Programs in physical education and sport at CMU focus on:
(1) the teaching of basic skills in a wide range of
activities, (2) the preparation of students to allow them to
pursue careers in physical education, sport and related
professions, and (3) the in-depth study of physical
education and sport.
Curricular offerings lead to the Bachelor of Science,
Bachelor of Science in Education, Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor
of Applied Arts, Master of Arts in Physical Education and
Master of Arts in Sport Administration. The degree programs
can prepare you for a career in physical education, athletic
training, athletic coaching, athletic administration and
exercise science. Interdisciplinary programs may meet your
needs if you have sport-related career goals. Many classes
involve active participation in sport and fitness
activities.
PED
Limitation
PED-designated courses are subject to a limitation of six
hours toward curricular requirements for graduation.
