PROFESSOR R. SCOTT KRETCHMAR, Interim Head
Kinesiology offers a comprehensive program of study in the science of human movement and is designed for students who want to prepare for professions involving physical activity and for graduate study in related areas. Three Four options are offered: (1) Athletic Training; (2) Movement Science; (3) Teacher Preparation; and (4) Wellness Development Specialization.
All options require a culminating practicum or research experience. First aid, CPR, and Water Safety Instructor (WSI) certification are highly recommended for the Teacher Preparation option. (See additional requirements for student teaching under General Information, Special Academic Programs.) Relocation away from the University Park Campus is generally necessary for student teaching and may be necessary for practicums in other options. First Aid and CPR are also recommended for the Applied Fitness emphasis in the Movement Science option.
Students who have completed a minimum of 28 credits with passing grades and have attained third-semester classification with a 2.00 cumulative grade-point average are eligible for entrance into the major after completing an Entrance to Major form and meeting the following requirements: Complete, with a grade of C or higher, two of the following three courses: KINES 141(3), 150(3), and 171(3).
For the B.S. degree in Kinesiology with an option in Athletic Training, a minimum of 130 credits is required; with an option in Movement Science, a minimum of 130 credits is required; with an option in Teacher Preparation, a minimum of 130 credits is required; with an option in Wellness Development Specialization, a minimum of 131 credits is required.
ATHLETIC TRAINING OPTION: This option provides a concentrated program of courses designed to prepare students for a career in the profession of athletic training. The option has been designed to meet the standards for certification by the National Athletic Trainers Association -- Board of Certification and legal certification by the Pennsylvania Physical Therapy Board as an athletic trainer.
Students are admitted into the program on a competitive basis following completion prerequisite courses (see requirements for admission). Students must also meet the "Technical Standards of the Undergraduate Athletic Training Program at Penn State University" related to the physical and psychol-emotional demands placed upon students in the option. The Technical Standards can be found at www.psu.edu/dept/kinesiology or obtained through the Department of Kinesiology, 276 Recreation Bldg. Penn State University, University Park, PA 16802. Upon admission students complete a 5 semester sequence of course work and supervised clinical rotations. Students typically commit 200-300 hours to clinical practical experiences in each of the last 4 semesters of the program. The course sequencing and prerequisite courses can be found at www. or obtained through the Department of Kinesiology. Full course descriptions are found in the University Bulletin (available at www.psu.edu/bulletins/bluebook/).
Students seeking to transfer from other colleges or universities will have their transcripts evaluated after acceptance to Penn State to identify those curses and credits that will be applied to completion of degree requirements. Courses work specific to athletic training will not be considered for transfer unless completed in a Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs accredited athletic training education program.
Minimum Requirements for Admission to the ;Athletic Tarring Option:
(Admission is competitive, meeting minimum requirements does not assure admission
into the option.)
MOVEMENT SCIENCE OPTION: This option consists of three areas that provide an opportunity for the concentrated study of physical activity in relation to science and medical emphasis; human behavior and humanities emphasis; and applied fitness emphasis. Upon graduation, students enter a variety of careers in relation to physical activity, be they professional, business oriented, or private agencies, and also may enter graduate school.
TEACHER PREPARATION OPTION: This option helps prepare teachers for K-12 Health and Physical Education. It includes all the academic requirements for the Instructional I Certificate in these fields issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Education. There are entrance requirements for all University teacher preparation programs:
WELLNESS DEVELOPMENT SPECIALIZATION OPTION: (offered only at the Berks-Lehigh Valley College): This option is a program of study in the science of human movement. This program offers Kinesiology background and applied experience in health assessment, exercise physiology, motor skill development, stress management, nutrition and healthy living skills. The program also has an emphasis in basic business skills of accounting, marketing, management, and entrepreneurship.
This program will prepare students with a knowledge base, practical experience, and entrepreneurial business skills for careers in human wellness. This combination will enable graduates in this field to compete for employment in the corporate fitness arena, private fitness clubs, community-based fitness organizations, hospital and university settings or possibly to operate their own wellness consulting company.
Graduates will be able to scientifically assess fitness levels of people. Analyzing those assessments, graduates will then be capable of designing and implementing appropriate exercise programs. The program is designed to prepare graduates for advanced study in related fields, if they so choose.
