Department Goals

Covenant’s Health, Wellness, and Coaching (HWC) Department provides students with a study of the dimensions of holistic wellness as they relate to health, spirituality, and sport within a Christian world and life view. The core course provides an understanding of nutritional aspects of good health as well as a thorough study of contemporary issues in health and fitness. Since upper division Health, Wellness, and Coaching courses are offered on an every fourth semester rotation, students desiring to minor in Coaching, or use the Coaching IDS disciplines need to begin taking courses in those areas by the first semester of their sophomore year if they plan to finish the requirements in four years. Failure to do so may cause the student to take course work beyond the traditional four year program.
