Department of Health and Exercise Studies
The mission of the Department of Health and Exercise Studies is to foster an inclusive academic environment in which to educate and inspire students to build and sustain a healthy body and mind for lifelong productivity and wellbeing.
HES offers a variety of courses that fulfill both the undergraduate general education program (GEP) requirement and four (4) academic minors: coaching education, health, outdoor leadership, and sports science. Minor curricula immerse students deeper into the discipline as well as prepare them for industry or graduate studies.
Department Highlights:
- Both face to face and distance options for many courses
- All courses are 鈥淭hink and Do鈥� in action
- HES offers four academic minors each with a capstone practicum course providing opportunity for experiential application of the discipline
- HES encourages students to 鈥淭ake 8 at State.鈥� Take an activity course each semester during your undergraduate career to stay well in mind and body. Completing four courses earns a water bottle and all eight earns students a t-shirt.
