Students must provide an official transcript(s) from an accredited institution to document successful completion of college coursework for the ACDV 101 requirement to be waived.

**These classes also fulfill General Education Electives.

Transfer Pattern Description

This degree pattern is designed to help students transfer to colleges and universities that offer a baccalaureate degree with a major in Physical Education. Beyond the General Education requirements and other degree, program, and elective requirements, this pattern should be considered in light of the requirements of the selected transfer institution. Students should consult with a transfer coordinator or an advisor for information about specific requirements.

Transfer Pattern Outcomes

Upon successful completion of this transfer pattern, students will be able to:

demonstrate knowledge of the educational goals and objectives of the professional preparation for physical education, exercise science, and sport;
identify the specialized physical education and sport areas of study including philosophy, history, sociology, sport & exercise psychology, motor development, motor learning, biomechanics, exercise physiology, sports medicine, sport pedagogy, sports management, and adapted physical activity;
demonstrate competency in writing learning outcomes and lesson plans and apply this knowledge while teaching a movement or skill in a class setting;
demonstrate knowledge of human anatomy, components of health and sports related fitness, and the guidelines for designing and implementing fitness and sports programs;
demonstrate competency in fitness and skills in individual sport, team sports, and aquatics; and
transfer to a 4 year institution as a physical education major, with junior year status.
