Physical Education is training through physical activities selected and undertaken with full regard to values in human growth, development and behavior. BSC’s program provides the first two years of study toward a bachelor’s degree with or without a teaching credential. Specialized coursework includes injury care/prevention, first aid/CPR, personal and community health, and elective courses in officiating, dance and wellness. The program provides four semesters of athletics, where participating students learn fundamental skills and strategies for a variety of sports. Graduates earn an Associate in Arts degree.

Employment of coaches and scouts is projected to grow 15 percent through 2022, faster than the average for all occupations. Jobs for fitness trainers and instructors will increase 13 percent, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
