DEGREE PROGRAM
The Faculty of Physical Activity Studies offers the degree of Bachelor of Physical Activity Studies (BPAS). The degree program consists of 120 credit hours of study and emphasizes not only knowledge of the discipline but also its application. From a common core of experiences, students may select one of four areas of concentration: adapted physical activity, recreation administration, sport administration, or fitness and lifestyle.
Fieldwork is an important part of the degree. Students can expect to learn by association with practicing professionals and, in addition, will be expected to contribute and to learn as volunteers in community service. The fieldwork experience is a supervised educational work experience within a selected agency. It is a bridge for the student between the academic present and the professional future. Fieldwork is a three-way partnership between the University, the student, and the fieldwork agency. All parties in the relationship assume definite responsibilities, perform specific functions, and gain benefits as a result of their involvement in the fieldwork experience.
Students must also successfully complete a computer applications course, first aid, and CPR certification prior to graduation. Students are responsible for the expense incurred in obtaining these non-credit, compulsory courses.
