Performance Enhancement and Coaching

The Performance Enhancement and Coaching (PEAC) concentration will allow students to develop the skills and competencies necessary for professional coaching. Coursework includes research, statistics, sports psychology, leadership, team building, performance coaching, and performance enhancement. Given that there will be a variety of applied and research experiences with the option of doing a thesis, PEAC is an excellent stepping stone to a doctorate in Sport Psychology or a related field.

Students will experience different types of performance enhancement techniques, including strategies to improve mental toughness and emotional intelligence.
