The Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE) program equips students to become K-12 physical education instructors. Alongside a liberal arts foundation, participants complete specialized coursework in both teaching methodologies and physical education. PETE majors gain hands-on experience through supervised teaching placements at elementary and secondary schools. For those seeking a non-teaching physical education degree, the College of Education, Human Performance, and Health provides an Exercise and Sport Science program.
