The Department of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation at Asbury University has a strong commitment to a program of quality. The program offers the student both depth and breadth in Equine Management, Exercise Science-Fitness Promotion, Health and Physical Education, Pre-Physical/Occupational Therapy, Recreation, and Sport Management. Six majors and five minors are available.
A. The HPER majors include the following:
The EQUINE MANAGEMENT MAJOR prepares graduates to serve in the horse industry as riding instructors, stable and/or farm managers, and in ministry settings. Students will also be introduced to facility and event management, business operations, and equestrian organizations. A dual track major may be done for Equine Facilitated Wellness by completing the Equine Management with a Psychology major.
The EXERCISE SCIENCE-FITNESS PROMOTION MAJOR prepares the student for graduate school study and entry level positions in a growing number of career opportunities in human health, fitness, and movement. These include corporate, commercial, private and clinical based fitness/wellness, and athletic strength and conditioning in high schools, colleges and sports medicine clinics. The degree provides the academic preparation to sit for certification by the leading organizations in the field, such as the American University of Sports Medicine or The National Strength and Conditioning Association. In addition to classroom course work, there is a six credit hour internship that encompasses 240 clock hours of work related experience in an Exercise Science setting that matches the student’s interests.
The HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION MAJOR prepares the students for positions as kindergarten through high school teachers in both health and physical education. Dual certification may be obtained.
The PRE-PHYSICAL/OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY MAJOR is designed to prepare the student for graduate school preparation and ultimately employment in either of these professions. Employment settings may include public schools, rehabilitation clinics, and other medical or health venues.
The RECREATION MAJOR prepares the students for positions in parks and recreation administration, facility planning and design, outdoor leadership, and recreation programming.
The SPORT MANAGEMENT MAJOR is designed to provide the student with the opportunity to develop expertise in business management with an orientation toward the world of sport. People given the opportunity for responsibility in the management of sport programs and facilities must become familiar with the various aspects of sport activities in addition to becoming professional business leaders. The major addresses the emphasis on Christian service in the growing area of world sport business. Opportunities for employment would include a variety of sport organizations involving management, marketing, promotion, and fund raising.
Each of the majors also prepares the student for graduate school in his/her area of interest and study. The HPER majors are encouraged to become involved in state and national professional organizations related to their major. Students are encouraged to attend professional conventions, hear guest lectures, and gain work experience in their area of interest.
B. The HPER minors include coaching, equine management, exercise science, recreation, and sport management.
The Coaching Minor prepares both the education and the non-education major for coaching opportunities in the middle school and high school settings as well as the non-school setting.
The Equine Management Minor provides the unique educational opportunity for students desiring to pursue an interest in the equine profession.
C. The intramural program is a vital part of the total university program and is under the leadership of the Department of Health, Physical Education, and Recreation. The program is open to all Asbury students, faculty and staff. Some of the sports and activities included in this program are: basketball, flag football, soccer, softball, tennis, volleyball, and other dual games and activities.
D. A tumbling team, which performs gymnastic exhibitions and witnesses in schools and churches, is also a part of the department. The tumbling team travels on a tour to the surrounding states during spring break and performs at a homecoming show, “Jym Jamboree,” upon return to campus.
