Minors that pair well with physical education are:
Coaching & Human Performance
All minors
Indiana Tech’s physical education program is different from programs at other universities in many ways. First of all, our course work emphasizes practical hands-on learning. Practicum experiences in physical education settings at public or private schools help you develop important skills. Secondly, our students experience a curriculum strong in sport and physical fitness, sport and motor skill development, instructional methodology, and coaching principles. Finally and possibly most importantly, our program offers an opportunity to become part of a team of students making an impact in children’s lives.
Feel free to contact a faculty member in physical education with any questions you may have.
