The Athletic Coaching minor provides students with the knowledge and skills to coach in youth sport settings, K-12 schools and colleges. The National Standards for Sport Coaches, published by the Society of Health and Physical Educators (SHAPE America), serves as the guiding basis for the minor. An internship completes the minor as a capstone experience. Students must also get American Red Cross First Aid and CPR certification to successfully complete the minor.
The Disability Studies and Community Inclusion minor prepares students to be leaders in promoting greater inclusion of people with disabilities in all aspects of life and across the lifespan. The minor enhances students' knowledge and skills by preparing them to understand and comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA); provide services to people with disabilities in a variety of settings; and understand: the nature of disabilities, the meaning of disability in society, social, political and health implications of disability, and the methods of accommodations that aid in making society more inclusive to those who live with disabilities.
The Teaching and Learning with Technology minor will equip you with the skills and knowledge to integrate technology into your teaching strategies, enhancing student learning and engagement.
