Mission Statement
The mission of the School of Health and Kinesiology is to 1) develop effective activity courses and academic degree programs, 2) provide recreation opportunities for the University family, 3) promote wellness through evaluation, education and motivation, and 4) serve the community with opportunities for healthy living.
Degrees Offered
The courses in Health and Kinesiology propose to: acquaint students with principles of healthful living, develop physical efficiency, develop life-long fitness and recreational habits, and/or prepare students for careers in physical education, health, wellness management, or related professions.
Health Science is an excellent degree for pre-Medicine, pre-Dental, pre-Physical Therapy, pre-Occupational Therapy, pre-Physician Assistant, and other medical related graduate programs.
No grade lower than a C- will be accepted in cognate courses for degrees in the School of Physical Education, Health and Wellness.
To receive a B.S. degree in Health, Physical Education and Recreation, students must successfully complete ALL Teacher Education requirements including student teaching. Note: Professional Education major and cognate courses with grades lower than a C have to be repeated.
Assessment
To help the graduates in Health and Kinesiology evaluate their academic progress and to aid the school in evaluating teaching effectiveness, each senior is required, during their final semester, to take an exit exam. The results of the assessments are used to evaluate the school programs.
Accreditation
- The Bachelor of Science in Physical Education is approved by the Tennessee Board of Education and accredited through the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP) as well as the Accrediting Association of Seventh-day Adventist Schools, Colleges and Universities.
