Master of Science en Entraînement Sportif

West Virginia Wesleyan College offers the Athletic Training Master of Science degree to provide students with the theoretical knowledge and understanding of the profession of athletic training beyond that of the entry level program and to enhance the quality of health care services for the physically active through the development of advanced clinicians.

The program is a 12-month, 36 credit hour curriculum that blends classroom instruction and real clinical, practical experiences. Each fall and spring semester includes a clinical practicum in which graduate students will be placed in various clinical placements (college athletics, high school athletics, junior high athletics, etc.). Students will be required to complete a thesis or research project to fulfill degree requirements. This master’s degree is designed for time efficiency so that graduates from any CAATE accredited curriculum can obtain an advanced degree in one calendar year. In addition, graduates can earn nationally recognized certifications as a Certified Athletic Trainer (ATC), Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), and Emergency Medical Technician (NREMT-B) through an optional course.

West Virginia Wesleyan College challenges its students to a life-long commitment to develop their intellectual, ethical, spiritual, and leadership potential and to set and uphold standards of excellence.

West Virginia Wesleyan creates a unique learning environment that enables our students to develop the skills, values, relationships, and perspective that will allow them to obtain employment, enhance their employment, and be leaders throughout their lives. They are well prepared to be successful and respected citizens of a rapidly changing world.
