Health and physical education: Strengthening the mind and body

With youth obesity rates climbing and an increasing number of students suffering from physical, emotional, and mental disorders, health and physical education are more important than ever. The Bachelor of Science with a major in health and physical education program at Trine University prepares you to equip youth with the skills to maintain and improve health throughout the rest of their lives.

The experience: Training in health, strength, and conditioning, plus extensive classroom time

As a health and physical education major, you will learn the science of the human body and gain foundational knowledge for healthy living. You will also take a variety of courses designed to prepare you to take national strength and conditioning certification upon graduation.

Like all Franks School of Education programs, extensive field experiences in diverse settings are required beginning in the first year of coursework. You will spend more than 800 hours in clinical settings from elementary through high school prior to graduation.

Teaching in completely redesigned campus classrooms, our passionate and student-centered faculty come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences, all related to classroom teaching, advanced research, and preparing future teachers. Our academically rigorous teacher education program focuses on:

• Student-centered instruction in a safe learning environment
• Evidence-based instructional strategies
• Classroom management techniques
• Innovative integration of classroom and gym technology

It’s easy to talk about excellence . But it’s another thing altogether to truly commit yourself to it each and every day. To live it. To inspire it in everything around you. At Trine University, this commitment to excellence has formed the bedrock of our experience for well over a century. You’ll see it, and you’ll feel it, the second you step on our beautiful, 450-acre campus in Angola, Indiana. Few schools can say they’ve been getting it done at such a high level for nearly 130 years. We can.

A Commitment to Excellence

From our programs to our faculty, to our facilities, to the positive impact our work has on communities everywhere, we set our standards at Trine just a little higher. We can’t help it. It’s who we are. It’s why U.S. News & World Report and the Princeton Review consistently rank us among the Midwest’s best universities, and it’s why more than 1,900 companies around the world seek out our graduates.

An Innovative Spirit

Innovation is in our DNA at Trine. It always has been. In fact, the modern-day golf ball was patented by a Trine graduate. Our students enjoy an active and engaging learning experience, winning national awards for the hands-on work they accomplish. We’ve invested more than $8 million in the Division of Innovation and Technology. And we recently unveiled a new, high-tech Project Based Learning Center for Excellence.
