Overview

Physical education (PE) majors explore exercise physiology, biomechanics, and kinesiology to strengthen their understanding of physical movement and fitness. They then apply their academic knowledge to the educational setting with coursework on instruction techniques, physical education assessments, and movement instruction.

The Physical Education K-12 Licensure course at New England College incorporates a hands-on field practicum and student teaching experience to prepare students for careers in K–12 physical education or a related field.

Career

Earning a bachelor’s degree in Physical Education prepares individuals for careers as PE teachers in public or private schools.

Graduates can also work in related physical education roles. For example, earning a BA in physical education degree can lead to opportunities as a fitness instructor, athletic trainer, or fitness trainer. The degree programme provides foundational training for graduate-level programmes in kinesiology, physical therapy, or health and physical education as well.
