Kinesiology majors have the option to specialize in physical education teacher education (EC-12) or in fitness and human performance. Both of these programs require all students be able to participate in vigorous physical activities. Successful completion of the physical fitness tests is required for all students enrolled in KIN 100  and KIN 340 . Failure to pass all test items results in a withheld grade.

Kinesiology EC-12 majors are required to take BIO 123  or BIO 238  and PHY 101  as part of the quantitative skills and science requirements of the Bachelor of Science. Kinesiology EC-12 majors also must complete KIN 234 , KIN 235  and KIN 236  prior to internship (SED 450 /SED 460 ) and KIN 353  and KIN 417  prior to student teaching. EC-12 majors must earn a grade of C or better in all required activity courses: KIN 234 , KIN 235  and KIN 236 .
