Welcome

AMONG UNDERGRADUTE physical education programs, Ohio Wesleyan’s is clearly one of the most diverse and modern. While the teacher concentration program continues to be a strong part of the curricula, faculty members have added innovative programs that provide students with specific areas of concentration. This structure offers options and preferences in preparing the student for a future in diverse work environments. Students in the program can prepare for advanced study or careers in teaching, personal training, sport medicine, management or other sport study areas, and in allied health professions, such as nursing, physical therapy or occupation therapy. Each concentration has specific gateways that students must complete successfully to graduate with a Physical Education major and a specific concentration emphasis.

The department also offers a physical education/coaching or sport science minor for the student with a major in another department. In addition to serving its own majors and minors, the department offers to the general student body numerous activity classes emphasizing lifetime activities.
