MESTRADO EM EDUCAÇÃO EM LIDERANÇA ESPORTIVA E DE BEM-ESTAR

The SWELL program seeks to provide kingdom-focused leadership, knowledge, and skills for those interested in furthering career opportunities in the world of sports and wellness.

Worldwide, the sport and wellness industries represent highly visible and significant opportunities for impacting the quality of life, accounting for more than $4 trillion of investment by individuals, corporations, and communities. Unlike graduate programs that may focus on one or the other, we think core knowledge and skillsets are adaptable to both settings. Consequently, graduates may find greater career flexibility and opportunity for service, enriched by Howard Payne University’s faith tradition and holistic emphasis.

A Christian liberal arts institution, Howard Payne University prides itself on fostering a close community where a personal connection is valued. Through teaching, learning, and service, the faculty and staff truly invest in students’ success.

At HPU, students choose from more than 100 majors, minors, and pre-professional programs in seven schools: Business, Christian Studies, Education, Humanities, Music and Fine Arts, Nursing, and Science and Mathematics. The Guy D. Newman Honors Academy challenges students with a multidisciplinary curriculum and exciting travel opportunities. Co-curricular organizations include the Model UN, Moot Court, and Student Speaker Bureau, and more than 25 student organizations round out the school’s extracurricular options.

HPU’s eighty-acre, tree-lined campus in Brownwood perches on the northern side of the Texas Hill Country. Off-campus activities include visits to nearby Lake Brownwood. Students who enjoy athletics take part in well-attended intramural sporting competitions. Student-athletes at HPU compete in six men’s and six women’s sports through the American Southwest Conference.
