The goal of the Health, Physical Education and Recreation Department is to provide a wide range of learning experiences in the education, recreation, wellness and sport management areas. This will prepare students for careers in more than one of these areas upon graduation.
We encourage each student in our department to obtain professional experiences related to their area of study through internships or clinical practice experience. Encouragement is also given to secure coaching opportunities, CPR and first aid certification and to attend professional conferences and clinics in areas related to their field of study.
There is ample opportunity for you to participate in both intercollegiate and intramural sports as well as other clubs and activities on campus. We have two major clubs within the department, the Recreation Major's Club and the Sport Management Major's Club. These clubs plan a variety of professional and social activities for our students.
