Secondary Education Physical Education/Kinesiology Fast Track
Note to students: Remember that this is a SAMPLE. Your schedule, for many reasons, will probably not end up looking exactly like this. What’s shown is a “fast-track” schedule. Be aware that you also have the option of completing the Kinesiology major over a four-year period, with a fifth year reserved for your teaching credential. Requirements will differ if you enter Ƶ with AP or college credit. Please confer with Kinesiology department advisor as major requirements sometimes change. Pre-requisites for the Education Program are in bold.
