Program of Study
The complete program consists of 20.0 academic courses, 4 physical activity core rotation credits, and 3 outdoor education courses. In addition, all students are required to obtain an acceptable (minimum eight hour) course in each of Standard First Aid and CPR (i.e., Basic Rescuer – level C)
Note: Academic courses with a “Y” in the course code designator are full course credits (8 months) and those with “H” are half course credits (4 or 8 months). For the final listing of courses available and the term and times they are offered in the current academic year, refer to the B.P.H.E. Academic and Physical Activity Timetables.STUDENTS ENROLLED PRIOR TO 2006/2007 MUST REFER TO THE CALENDAR OF their YEAR of admission FOR THEIR DEGREE REQUIREMENTS.
