Coaching
The coaching minor program prepares graduates to coach in a variety of sites, including schools, public agencies, and youth organizations. The curriculum prepares students to assess, plan, administer, and instruct student athletes.
The coaching minor meets or exceeds the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) standards for coaching, with emphasis in coaching and administrative theory, psychology, medical and nutritional concerns, risk management, and skill development. Requirements and admission applications can be obtained from the Department of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation (HPER).
Postbaccalaureate students seeking a coaching minor should have their transcript evaluated by the HPER department.
