Physical education
We offer one of the few physical education licensure programs at the
graduate level in the state and one of a small number of licensure programs
in Minnesota in developmental/adapted physical education. Students who
choose to pursue dual licensure in both areas will find themselves in high
demand in school districts looking for teachers qualified to handle both
types of classes.
Our faculty are active researchers in the field and also are leaders in
the profession, sponsoring such national gatherings as the North American
Federation of Adapted Physical Activity Symposium. Because of the depth and
breadth of expertise in the College, students in physical education may
choose to expand their studies in numerous areas including biomechanics,
exercise physiology, sport psychology and sport sociology, human factors
research, and motor learning, control, and development.
