Students who complete this major will contribute to the Provincial focus on health and physical education.

All BHPE - Physical Literacy major students must complete the following courses in order to complete the BHPE core and major specific degree requirements:

BHPE Core Requirements (9 courses)
Physical Literacy Major Requirements (18 courses)
General Education
In addition to the above list, Physical Literacy students require nine General Education courses and four electives. Students are required to take four foundation General Education courses (one from each cluster), one course in the second tier from the Communication cluster (Cluster 2) and then four courses from the third tier (courses must be from at least two different clusters).
The BHPE - Physical Literacy program requires specific general education courses to meet graduation requirements. These are specified in the program curriculum. For incoming students in the BHPE program, it is important to seek clarification of these requirements and up-to-date registration information through an Academic Advisor in the Department of Health and Physical Education.
