Health, Physical Education and
Recreation at NMU
The department offers
programs leading to a bachelor's degree in either liberal arts or
education, with specialization in athletic training, health
education, outdoor recreation, physical education or sports
science. A master of science degree is also available for students
wishing to pursue advanced study in exercise science.
Health, Physical Education and
Recreation Programs
Athletic Training (CAAHEP Accredited Program)
The
athletic training major is designed to prepare and qualify
students to take the National Athletic Trainers Association
Certification Examination. Upon obtaining certification, students
will be qualified athletic trainers for positions in settings such
as high schools, colleges, sports medicine clinics, rehabilitation
centers or private industry. Students who enter the major must
achieve a grade of "B-" or higher in athletic training courses,
and a "C" or higher in other courses within the curriculum.
Students must also select
an area of
special
electives, eight credits from either health, biology or
physical education.
The NMU
athletic training education program is a CAAHEP (Commission on
the Accreditation of Allied Health Education Program) accredited
program. The program received its initial accreditation in April of
2003.
The athletic training
program provides students with solid didactic and clinical
education and boasts a fully equipped, 1044 square feet athletic
training laboratory facility, campus athletic training rooms and a
staff of 17 approved clinical instructors.
Health Education and Management
of Health and Fitness
There are three
major programs in this division: Health Education, Secondary
Education Health Education and Management of Health and Fitness.
These professional programs are designed to: promote the
development of health literacy; prepare students for entry-level
health promotion/health education positions in line with
appropriate professional standards; build upon liberal studies
foundations; and, prepare students for graduate school, should it
be desired.
Students
selecting these majors will learn to use health promotion and
disease prevention interventions in ethical ways to affect the
health knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of various target
populations in a variety of settings (worksites, schools,
hospitals/clinics, public health agencies, health clubs, geriatric
centers and others). Content areas involve the physical,
intellectual, emotional, social, spiritual, environmental, and
occupational components of health promotion and disease
prevention. The selection of a major depends upon what the overall goals
and interests of the student are relative to career objectives,
content areas liked, population the student want to work with,
and desired career setting.
An internship,
field experience, or student teaching experience is included in
each major. These majors also help students prepare to earn
certifications such as the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM)
Health and Fitness Instructor Certification, the Certified Health
Education Specialist (CHES) Accreditation, and relevant Michigan
Teacher Certifications. It is recommended that students take HL
110 (Introduction to Health and Fitness Education) to further
explore these majors and career opportunities in the field.
Physical Education
The primary aim
of the undergraduate professional physical education program is to
prepare physical education majors through the
acquisition of knowledge, the development of skills, and the
development of a positive attitude toward activity and fitness
that will enable them to perform effectively in a teaching role.
More specifically, students majoring in physical education: (1) obtain knowledge about
human movement, such as the physiology of muscular activity, the
neural and kinesiological basis of movement, measurement and
evaluation of motor performance, and methodology of teaching motor
skills; (2) develop personal skills in a variety of activities in
addition to teaching skills; (3) acquire sensitivity to, and
understanding of, human relations in the learning environment by
participating in a variety of laboratory and field experiences.
Outdoor Recreation Leadership
and Management
The outdoor
recreation leadership and management major is for students who
expect to pursue a career or graduate work in leisure services,
outdoor recreation, protected area management, or related fields.
The major provides an academic foundation which meets professional
standards in leisure studies, in general, and outdoor recreation,
in particular. Also, the major provides varied opportunities for
students to develop additional competencies for more specialized
entry-level positions in leisure and outdoor recreation settings.
The learning environment is small scale and friendly and uses both
traditional and experiential learning strategies.
The student
organization, Organization for Outdoor Recreation Professionals (OORP)
exists to address student interests and concerns and provide
leadership experiences. A variety of career-relevant jobs and
volunteer work exist in the department and on campus. Graduates
may be self-employed or may find employment in interpretive or
outdoor education centers, organized camps, resorts, outfitters
and guide services, colleges, adventure programs, county and city
recreation and parks departments, state and federal land and water
resource management agencies, and a variety of nonprofit
organizations and businesses related to the field of outdoor
recreation.
Sports Science
The sports
science major is a graduate school preparation program
for students who have focused interests in sport and exercise
science. The curriculum provides a strong foundation in the basic
sciences of human biology, chemistry, and physics and
introductory-level study in the applied areas of exercise
physiology, kinesiology/biomechanics, and sport nutrition.
Successful graduates will have completed prerequisites for
graduate study in more specific exercise science disciplines.
Department/Program Policies
General Information
Student
placement and/or employment in public school systems, athletic
training agencies and outdoor recreation leadership management
agencies generally stipulate that applicants possess good moral
character, strong judgment and the ability to successfully pass
the rigors of Northern Michigan University’s Department of HPER to
validate or ensure these prerequisite qualities in our majors.
Each student is therefore advised that school systems and agencies
will perform a background investigation on potential employees.
The nature and scope of the background investigation is the
prerogative of the specific school system or agency and is
ordinarily subject to the consent of the applicant. Lack of
consent would ordinarily remove an individual from placement
and/or employment consideration. Additional information in this
regard is available to you by speaking with your academic adviser,
department head or the director of teacher education student
services.
