Description:The Fitness and Health Promotion program is for students interested in learning about the science and practice of implementing useful programs of physical fitness and health for all ages and stages of development. By designing and delivering meaningful, age-relevant physical activity programs, graduates will contribute to the health of the "well" population and help people improve their performance in their careers and personal lives. Graduates will be prepared for front line direct-client work with individuals of varying ages and in various settings. This program provides a broad study of the principles and methods of fitness and health provision to children and youth cohorts where few others have done so. Experiental learning through field placement is at the core of this program. This program takes a holistic approach to intervention with each of targeted cohorts addressing such issues as client context and family support.
