Springfield College has a distinguished history and an international reputation for educating exceptional physical education, movement and sport studies, and health education professionals. Study in these areas, augmented by additional classes in activity, pedagogy, and sport science, will prepare well-rounded professionals sought by employers and help graduates to secure desirable and challenging

careers. An outstanding faculty, many of whom teach undergraduate and graduate courses, will provide a strong educational foundation as well as the most current information and knowledge in their areas. Our students also benefit from practical experience in real-life situations, in many cases working with school-aged children and other populations as early as their first year.

Youth in Motion today! Springfield College's East Campus Outdoor Learning Center hosted SC alums and students from 8 high schools across MA (as close as Springfield's SciTech and Putnam, and as far as Somerville and Needham). The alumni health and physical educators and school counselors engaged in professional development on supporting students' mental health. The students experienced leadership development on the challenge course and explored careers involving physical activity, health, and sport. The future of our professions is bright given how impressive these students are!
