BS Physical Education: Athletic Training Emphasis (74 hours*)

This is a limited-enrollment program requiring departmental admissions approval. Please see the college advisement center for information regarding requirements for admission to this major. Premajor Program MAP

The Discipline

The study of athletic training appeals to those who would like to work in a field that combines an athletic setting with health and fitness care. A student in athletic training will learn to apply knowledge of human anatomy, exercise physiology, conditioning, nutrition, and therapy in the prevention, immediate care, and rehabilitation of athletic injuries.

Career Opportunities

Career possibilities include working with athletic teams at all levels of competition or in a sports medicine clinical setting or other allied health facilities. NATA certification is required, and an advanced degree is recommended.

Major Requirements

  1. Maintain a high personal fitness level and follow healthy lifestyle habits.

  2. No D credit is allowed in the major courses.
    Deleted as a requirement 10 April 2001.

  3. A minimum of 45 hours in the major must be completed in residence at BYU.

  4. Apply for acceptance into the athletic training program during semester of enrollment in PE 320. See the program director or PE 320 instructor for an application packet. Admission to the program requires the candidate to meet the following criteria:

BS Physical Education: Exercise Science Emphasis (67.5–74.5 hours*)

The Discipline

Designed to provide the basics from which the student can pursue specialized training in physical therapy, occupational therapy, medicine, physsician's assistant, chiropractic, and other health-care professions, the exercise science emphasis explores the intriguing relationship between exercise and the functioning of the human body. The basic concepts of human anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, motor learning, chemistry, physics, and nutrition are mastered to help understand this relationship. The impact that movement and exercise have on the human organism is almost interminable, making study of this discipline enthralling.

Students considering medicine as a profession may want to select this major. While providing most requisite courses for medical school acceptance, it also conveys a healthy-lifestyle, preventive-medicine health care perspective.

Career Opportunities

The exercise science emphasis provides excellent preparation for students interested in graduate work in exercise physiology (MS, PhD) or those desiring to pursue training in medicine, physical therapy, cardiac rehabilitation, podiatry, chiropractic, and other health care professions. Graduates with this major may also find opportunities in community, corporate, or hospital wellness centers and health promotion programs. Positions requiring only a bachelor's degree may be difficult to find.

Major Requirements

  1. Maintain a high personal fitness level and follow healthy lifestyle habits.

  2. No D credit is allowed in the major courses.
    Deleted as a requirement 10 April 2001.

*Hours include courses that may fulfill GE or university requirements.



BS Physical Education: Fitness and Wellness Management Emphasis (60 hours*)

The Discipline

Fitness and wellness management is a departure from the typical U.S. medical model in that the focus is on helping individuals achieve optimal health and fitness, rather than on discovering and treating disease. Recent research findings, along with rising health-care costs, have spurred an interest in keeping people healthy to improve their quality of life and also to avoid unnecessary medical expenses.

Depending on electives completed, there are several excellent graduate school options to pursue. Earning a master's degree in exercise science/physical education, for example, can give the added knowledge and experience needed to direct a private, commercial, corporate, or clinical health/fitness program. Some graduates are interested in becoming physician assistants. Specific prerequisites vary from school to school, but generally physician assistant (PA) schools require Biol 130; Chem 105, 107, 107; Mcbio 221, 222; and Stat 221. Visit the physician assistants Web site at www.aapa.org, or contact the BYU Physician Assistants Club (380 WIDB) for more information. To increase the odds of acceptance to PA school, some students complete a master's degree in exercise science/physical education and then work for several years in the field. Other graduate opportunities include a master's in public health (MPH), business administration (MBA), recreational therapy (MS), or food science and nutrition (MS), to name a few.

Career Opportunities

Personal fitness professionals find employment primarily in commercial or community fitness centers but may also work in hospital wellness programs or corporate health-promotion programs. Job responsibilities typically involve teaching clients how to achieve optimal wellness through effective exercise, wholesome nutrition, and successful stress-management strategies.

Major Requirements

  1. Participate in regular exercise, eat a healthful diet, and follow other positive lifestyle habits that lead to an optimal level of health and well-being.

  2. No D credit is allowed in major courses.
    Deleted as a requirement 10 April 2001.

  3. A minimum of 15 major hours must be completed in residence at BYU.

  4. Complete the following core requirements:
    PE 301, 302, 361, 363, 365, 367.

  5. Complete the following:

    FSN 100, 410.
    Hlth 365, 461.
    PE 205, 320, 321, 368, 399R, 451, 468.

The Discipline

Students preparing to teach and/or coach physical education will have a variety of experiences that will enhance proficiency in the knowledge and skills requisite to working in the contemporary school setting. Majors learn to perform a variety of sport, fitness, and dance activities personally. After becoming proficient, students take courses and have practical experiences in teaching and coaching children, adolescents, and adults. The discipline is interesting and rewarding, and those in a teaching/coaching career help others pursue and practice healthy lifestyle habits.

Career Opportunities
