Physical education (PE) is important to the long-term physical, social, emotional and intellectual health of our children. The Physical Education with Mathematics degree involves three strands of study—PE, Mathematics and Education Studies—all of which will be put into working context in your extensive school placement.

The PE element of the course pairs psychological, biomechanical and sociological theory, with practical instruction on how PE is taught through games, aquatics, gymnastics, dance, athletics and outdoor adventure education.

In the Mathematics modules, you’ll study maths for the physical sciences, linear maths, calculus, differential equations, numerical methods and abstract algebra. You’ll also learn how best to teach maths to second-level students.

Education Studies integrates educational theory and practice through 'coaching rather than teaching', which involves group work, reflective diaries, online reporting and reflection, case studies and other problem-based learning approaches.

This course gave me the skills to apply the knowledge I gained in DCU into a school environment. The Mathematics side is very engaging while the PE side is broad and gives an insight into teaching many types of sport. The practical side is fun and adds to the enjoyment of the course as well as to the development of personal and social skills. Also, hands on experience in the class-room, truly prepares you for your future career in a school.
