The Master of Education degree with a concentration in Health and Physical Education is a fully online program that provides advanced HPE coursework and is ideal for two distinct learner groups.

Current health and physical education teachers will elevate their skills in the specialization while completing their advanced degree. There aren't many HPE-specific graduate programs that allow you to focus on the content area you teach.

Candidates seeking licensure in health and physical education take foundational content area coursework to prepare for a rewarding teaching career. Students seeking licensure benefit immediately by earning their master's degree. Our schools need you!

Students pursuing the concentration will complete 34 credits of core graduate and health and physical education coursework. The licensure option requires additional coursework beyond the 34 credits for the master’s degree. 

Note: Teaching licensure is not available to acquire independently from the master's program. Students must apply for the master's program to complete licensure coursework embedded within the program.
