Introduction to Kinesiology
Education in motion.
Whether you see yourself on the sidelines as a coach or a trainer, in the classroom as a health teacher, on the business side as a sports manager or if you simply have a desire to share your faith through the sport you love, your active learning and leading style is a perfect fit here. In the simplest terms, kinesiology is the study of human movement, and at LETU, we study movement from the simple to the extreme!Our students dig deep into the fields they love with hands-on internship experience and quality training to help them make a major impact in a vast variety of education and health-related fields - two of the top areas for stable, in-demand careers.
Real Students - Real Honesty
Kinesiology students and faculty speak out:
- "In just about every class, the professors make it a point to apply the subject to your prospective field so you can better understand how to apply the information in your upcoming career." -Adam
-
"Our kinesiology department provides training with a very
intentional Christian perspective. Through class devotionals and integrating Scripture into course
materials, we prepare students for their profession grounded in a Christian worldview."
-Dr. Wayne Jacobs -
"The university, especially the kinesiology department, not only
prepares you for the 'real world,' but gives you opportunities to use your unique talents,
abilities and passions to make a difference."
-Bethany -
"Our students tell us that the personal investment we make in their
lives was the most valuable part of their time at LETU. Our students are not just another warm body
to fill a chair, they’re our ministry."
-Dr. Duane Trogdon -
"My professors make learning interesting and fun. They are
passionate about kinesiology and really want me to succeed."
