Physical Education Major, B.S. (Teacher Licensure)

Because one course in either sociology or anthropology is required for the teacher licensure in physical education, Physical Education majors are urged to select SOC 110 Introduction to Sociology, SOC 112 Modern Social Problems, ANTH 100 Becoming Human - Tracing Our Origins, or ANTH 101 Cultural Anthropology in the Liberal Education curriculum. Majors are also urged to select BIOL 111, 112, 113 General Biology, Lecture and Laboratory in Liberal Education since these are prerequisites to several courses required in the major.

This program satisfies licensure requirements to teach and coach in Minnesota public schools. For requirements for entry into and completion of teacher licensure programs, see Professional Education: Admission to, Retention in, and Completion of Teacher Education Programs, this catalog.
