Post-secondary study has changed a lot since what's considered the first community college opened back in 1901. Who would have thought then that academic programs would one day be offered in an area like sports? But today, community colleges across the country are doing just that, with a variety of program options in the field of sport sciences and physical education. Perhaps we shouldn't be so surprised; community colleges in the US (alternately called institutes, technical colleges, junior colleges or just colleges) constantly respond to the changing needs of high school grads looking for an education that's fast, focused and of high quality. Offering mostly 2-year associate's degrees and 1- to 2-year diplomas and certificates, community colleges aren't just less expensive than universities, they offer different programs, different academic credentials and a completely different learning environment.
Community college programs in sport sciences and physical education include associate's degrees with a variety of specializations, such as exercise and sport science, sport management, adventure sports leadership, and physical fitness. Articulation agreements often exist between community colleges and universities, which allows you to transfer credits toward a bachelor's degree. So whether it's an education that will get you into the job market right away, or a credential that can help you prepare for university--whatever your drive, community colleges with sport sciences and physical education programs are a great option for a competitive future!
