The 100% online, 35-hour master of science in kinesiology and sport administration has been designed to help further the careers of current professionals in the areas of physical education, coaching and sport — especially teachers and coaches — while they work full time.
As a physical education teacher, you'll provide instruction in physical fitness, sports and other activities. Lesson plans may utilize components of team, individual or recreactional sports to educate students on the benefits of regular exercise and nutrition.
As a coach, you'll make a lasting impact on the lives of student-athletes by teaching them not only how to compete at the highest level but also how to be a team player, overcome adversity and respect their coaches, teammates, referees and opponents.
Careers in outdoor recreation include roles like outdoor adventure or hunting guides, national or state park rangers, and camp directors. If you love the outdoors and want to share that love with others, this could be the field for you.
