Health and Human Performance Professionals

Creating a Healthy, Progressive Global Community

Mission

In pursuit of our vision, the Department of Health and Human Performance (HHP) prepares quality graduates to be ethical and competent entry level professionals in health and human performance related occupations or candidates for advanced study in related disciplines. Within the liberal arts tradition of the University of Montana and the mission of the College of Education and Human Sciences, the Department of Health and Human Performance engages in professional education, scholarly activity, and meaningful public service. The department emphasizes mental, social, spiritual, and physical dimensions of health to promote healthy lifestyle choices and enhanced quality of life.

The Health and Human Performance Department has established the following goals in support of our vision and mission:

Promote an understanding and appreciation for the scope of the profession
Enhance student awareness of the departmental mission and goals
Coordinate student development of the basic skills germane to effective practice as health and human performance professionals or successful pursuit of advanced studies
Cultivate higher-order thinking skills that increase students' involvement and interest in their own learning, promoting a lifelong quest for knowledge
Nurture cognition of the multiple dimensions of health (physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, social and environmental)
Advocate respect for the uniqueness and dignity of others.

Undergraduate students choose between two majors: Athletic Training or Health & Human Performance (HHP). HHP majors also choose from one of the following options: Exercise Science, Health Enhancement, or Community Health.

The Exercise Science option has three tracks: Pre-Professional, Applied, and Pre-Athletic Training. The Pre-Professional track is designed to provide students with an in-depth science background and prepares students for post-baccalaureate study in exercise physiology and related health sciences such as medical school, physical therapy, physician's assistant or other medical programs. Successful graduates of this option should possess the knowledge and skills to qualify for the ACSM Exercise Specialist Certification (requires additional clinical hours). The Pre-Professional option is for students planning to continue on in higher education. The Applied track is designed to prepare students for jobs as strength and conditioning coaches, athletic coaches, personal trainers, elderly services providers, corporate wellness personnel and directors, fitness center directors and other fitness related jobs. Successful graduates of this track should possess the knowledge and skills to qualify for the American College of Sport Medicine-Fitness Instructor and/or National Strength and Conditioning Association Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist. The Pre-Athletic Training Track is designed for students interested in applying for the Master's in Athletic Training Program (see information below).

The Health Enhancement option prepares students to use a variety of educational strategies designed to facilitate the adoption of healthy behaviors in K-12 students. Upon acceptance into the College of Education and Human Sciences, and successful completion of the course requirements, students will be eligible for a Montana K-12 teaching license. See Admission Policies below.

The Community Health option prepares students with knowledge and skills related to assessing individual and community needs prior to planning, implementing, and evaluating programs designed to encourage healthy lifestyles and environments. Individuals who will be most successful in the community health option are those who are deeply interested in the interrelationship among all aspects of health (social, emotional, mental, spiritual and physical) and in the life and behavioral sciences. In addition, success in this field requires imagination and creativity in applying scientific knowledge to strategies for individual and community change through a wide range of educational, environmental and political approaches. Graduates of this program will be prepared to take the National Certification Exam for Health Education Specialists.

The Master's in Athletic Training Program prepares competent entry-level athletic trainers for employment in educational and clinical settings or post-graduate study. The Athletic Training curriculum is designed to help students develop competency in evidence based medicine, prevention and health promotion, clinical examination and diagnosis, acute care of injury and illness, therapeutic interventions, psychosocial strategies and referral, healthcare administration and professional development and responsibility. Successful graduates should possess the knowledge and skills to qualify for the Board of Certification Examination.

The graduate curriculum in Health and Human Performance at the University of Montana prepares post-graduates to become effective health and human performance professionals or competitive candidates for advanced study in related disciplines through a comprehensive program of study and guided research. Development of the following is considered essential in achieving a graduate degree:

Oral and written communication skills,
An understanding of current research literature in one's chosen specialization and the independent pursuit of learning beyond the confines of curricular requirements,
Appropriate technological skills,
Ability to design, conduct, and report research in a scholarly fashion,
Personal characteristics, sense of responsibility, and professional behavior requisite for effective functioning as an advanced health and human performance professional.

Graduate options include Exercise Science, Health Promotion, Athletic Training, and Health and Human Performance. For more information regarding the department's graduate program refer to either:

Admission Policies for the Athletic Training Degree

Athletic Training Program (ATP)

The University of Montana-Missoula offers an accelerated entry level Master’s in Athletic Training program housed within the Health and Human Performance Department. The program meets the standards established by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE). The current undergraduate Athletic Training Program is accredited by CAATE; however the Master’s in Athletic Training Program will undergo review in 2013-2014. The ATP is a demanding curriculum which requires dedication and commitment. Upon completion there are a variety of professional career opportunities.

The University of Montana offers an accelerated Master’s in Athletic Training Program. This program allows students to take three years of pre-requisite courses and general education requirements, followed by 2 years full time in a Master’s in Athletic Training program, including summers. There are two ways in which a student may attain a Master’s Degree in Athletic Training:

Option 1: A five-year program in which students earn a Bachelor of Science Degree in Health and Human Performance and a Master’s Degree in Athletic Training.

Option 2: A two-year master’s program designed for students who already have a baccalaureate degree

Upon completion of the Master’s in Athletic Training Program, students will be eligible to sit for the Board of Certification (BOC) Exam. (Pending accreditation from CAATE Fall 2014)

*Both the Bachelor’s degree and Master’s degree will be officially awarded at the time of graduation.

Following are the requirements for application, admission, and retention of the Athletic Training Program (ATP). Academic advisors are available to assist students with this interesting and challenging professional program.

Admission. Students who desire admission into the Master’s in Athletic Training Program must submit a formal application. This application must be submitted by the deadline (February 15^th ) prior to your proposed admission into the professional program. If the application deadline falls on a weekend, applications may be submitted the next business day by 5pm. Applications received after the deadline will be considered on a rolling admissions basis if available slots exist.

A review board consisting of the Athletic Training Program Director, Clinical Director, Preceptors, professional students and possibly other professionals, will evaluate each student applying for admission to the professional program. Formal notification of admission to the Master’s program will be made in writing.

Candidates who are NOT admitted to the program will also receive written notification of this decision. Students may be selected as alternates and if a vacancy should become available prior to summer semester, these students will be informed. Not all qualified candidates may be admitted to the Master’s program due to limited enrollment in clinical experiences.
