BA Healthful Living and Fitness Education

The Healthful Living and Fitness Education program is designed for students who want to enter K‑12 teaching or the health, wellness and fitness industries. Students must complete the core courses and then, choose from one of two concentrations: the K‑12 Teacher Licensure concentration or the Lifetime Fitness and Health concentration. The K‑12 Teacher Licensure concentration is accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation (CAEP), and prepares students to teach, coach and assume leadership positions in K‑12 schools. The Lifetime Fitness and Health concentration prepares students for a career in the health and fitness industry. A Master of Education (MED) degree and a Master of Arts in Teaching (MAT) are also offered, in conjunction with the Watson College of Education.
