The Department of Kinesiology provides study toward the Bachelor of Arts degree with a major or a minor in Kinesiology. The department also offers Fitness and Recreational Activity (FRA47 prefix) classes. The major includes courses that a prospective physical education teacher and/or coach would need for teaching certification, and the requisite theory courses for graduate study in the discipline.
Persons with undergraduate and/or graduate degrees in Kinesiology are prepared for careers in a variety of fields, including teaching (elementary and secondary), coaching, sports management, health/fitness industry, recreational management, exercise science and sports medicine.
Area of Kinesiology
The objectives of the study of Kinesiology are:
1. To prepare students for successful careers in teaching, coaching, recreational settings and the exercise sciences.
2. To provide programs of study appropriate for obtaining teacher and athletic training certification and for pursuing graduate study.
3. To develop student interest and appreciation for careers in sports, recreation, health and fitness industries, athletic training and the exercise sciences.
Athletic Training Education Program Emphasis
The Athletic Training Education Program (ATEP), an area of emphasis, is a pre-professional program set in a liberal arts context, and is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP). The ATEP is designed as a seven-semester program that includes theory, laboratory and clinical education components. ATEP students must meet the requirements of the National Athletic Trainer’s Association Board of Certification, Inc. and the Texas Department of Health Advisory Board of Athletic Trainers to qualify for certification and licensure. Admission to the University and the ATEP require separate application procedures. The requirements for completion of the ATEP area of emphasis are listed below. In addition to these, students must meet certain technical standards as developed from the Americans with Disabilities Act. Students must pass all courses with a C- or Pass in a Pass/D/Fail course to receive credit for the courses within the Program listed below. Refer to the ATEP Handbook for specific pre-professional phase and admission requirements.
Area of Fitness and Recreational Activity
The objectives of the Fitness and Recreational Activity (FRA) program for Southwestern students are:
1. To develop knowledge, skills and physical abilities that contribute to the enjoyment of various sports and leisure-time activities throughout life.
2. To acquire techniques and expertise in developing and maintaining personal physical fitness.
3. To develop and practice during college years a lifestyle that promotes wellness, physical fitness and incorporates recreational activities on a regular basis.
4. To promote interests and abilities in intramural and recreational sports/activities.
The following policies apply to Fitness and Recreational Activity courses:
1. Two semester hours of Fitness and Recreational Activity course(s) are required for all degrees. FRA courses are graded on a Pass/D/F basis.
2. One additional FRA course may be counted as elective credit toward all degrees.
3. Repeat courses are not allowed in the attainment of the required two semester hours. Exceptions to this policy are: 1) repeating 47-001, Adapted Recreational/Fitness Activities, and 2) repeating a course in which content changes by design, such as 47-001 and 301, Selected Topics.
4. Credit by departmental examination may be received in FRA courses upon petition to the department chair. Students must achieve a grade of at least 70 percent on a written test over the subject and must demonstrate appropriate proficiency to earn credit by examination.
Major in Kinesiology: 40 semester hours, including Allied Health Education 46-244; Kinesiology 48-192, 313, 403, 423, 704, 714, 813 (Capstone); 48-232 (for students interested in teaching or coaching) or 822 (for students interested in graduate school); two FRA courses in addition to the two required by the general education requirement (repeated courses will not count); 10 additional semester hours of Kinesiology or Allied Health Education.
NOTE: The Capstone Experience is satisfied by Kinesiology 48-813. Kinesiology 48-953 may be used to meet this requirement under the following conditions. The student must present a proposal describing the nature of his/her proposed Capstone experience. The faculty member supervising the activity and the Department Chair must approve this proposal. Approval must be obtained prior to registration in the semester preceding the independent study. Students seeking teaching certification may use student teaching to meet their Capstone requirement.

Additional requirements for the Kinesiology major with an ATEP emphasis: (1) Observation Phase: Students interested in studying athletic training are required to enroll in prerequisite courses and to observe certified athletic trainers for 75 hours prior to applying for admission into the Athletic Training Education Program. (2) After completion of the observation phase, students may apply for admission into the ATEP during the fall or spring semesters. Once admitted each student must complete 1,000 hours of clinical education over a minimum of six semesters. (3) Current certifications in Professional Rescuer CPR and First Aid are required. Additional electives and requirements may be required by the National Athletic Trainers’ Association Board of Certification, Inc. and/or ABAT to qualify to sit for professional examinations. (4) Capstone Requirement: After admission into the ATEP and completion of six of the seven required semesters, a student must sign-up for an off-campus internship. The internship must be done at an affiliated athletic training site as approved by the department chair and the director of athletic training education. The deadline to sign-up for this internship is mid-term of the prior semester. This internship fulfills the Capstone requirement for the ATEP. (5) ATEP students must meet the academic requirements of the University and those of the ATEP program as described in the ATEP Handbook.
Minor in Kinesiology: 18 semester hours, including Kinesiology 48-192, 403; two from 48-423, 704, 714; two FRA courses in addition to the two required by the general education requirement (repeated courses will not count); three or four additional hours of Kinesiology or Allied Health Education, one or two hours of which must be above the introductory level (number of additional hours varies according to courses selected above).
